Recognize

She's got a fire in her heart, fix the world or fall apart (Mmmm)
She says the wrong thing, laughs in spite of everything
She trips up at the start and stops before she begins (Mmmm)
I recognize her, I recognize her

And time will slowly take the little things we save
The little things we hold onto
Waiting for the sun, the tide the breeze the moon
Eating up these seasons with a silver spoon

All black and two fake tattoos, always staying on the move
Fortune tellers and wine, trying so hard to not decide
Pushing people away just to see if they'll stay
I recognize her, I recognize her

One year turns into nine
How has it been so long since she's been a child?
Pieces of this page, ripped and torn and strewn
Fluttering like petals at the end of June

Starts six books at a time, her journals look like the sky (Mmmm)
She drew a heart on the sole of her shoe in the ninth grade (Ooh ahh)
Brown eyes and wrinkles around – they came when she wasn't watching

Take a walk at night (Take a walk at night)
Try to make some space (Try to make some space)
Try to hear your thoughts just right
(Try to hear your thoughts just right)
She has to go alone (She has to go alone)
No pride no shame no rules (No pride, no shame, no rules)
Following the whisper (Following the whisper)
That led her to the sea (That led her to the sea)

I recognize her, I recognize her (Mmmm)
Oh I recognize her, I recognize her
