I gotta be honest
I’ve been struggling today
Right behind this brave face
I am tired and I am scared

I’ve been second-guessing
If I made the right move
If I have the will to see it through
And then from out of nowhere

I hear you singing
Your sound waves resonate
In my body, the cells awaken
And I hear your song
It’s a different melody than my own
But I know where sounds like that come from
And now I know I’m not alone

You sang ‘cause you had to
I know that feeling oh so well
Truth rising up like ocean swell
A pure and unstoppable force

You didn’t do it for me
But sending your song out on the wind
Is filling my lungs with oxygen
And I’m alive again

I hear you singing
Your sound waves resonate
In my body, my heart awakens
And I hear your song
It’s a natural harmony with my own
‘Cause sounds like that only come from
The deepest places we have known
And I thank god we’re not alone

Your song calls to the one inside me
My body rings on the truth you are sounding
I found my voice in the chord of your offering
Thank you for singing, for listening and singing
