about

I opted for the reserved album opener (which puts a little pressure on the track coming up next, haha!) Vocally this song feel in a part of my range that's tricky to sing in head voice - not 100% pleased with it but it'll do. Got to debut my brand new melodica too! It's great to get back in the songwriting saddle again.

lyrics

It’s hard to find lighting outside the storm
Where we can see clear as day
And not get blown around or soaked to the bone
It’s hard to know peace again without the pain
Of shattered hopes and dreams
It's the dreams, you know, that keep us awake and alive

It’s all, all we want to know
All we've waited for
It’s happening once again
All, all it’s ever been
All that it can be
It's right here and now

I want you to lean into liminal times
And listen to the silence
You'd be surprised at what you see when you're not looking
I want you to know that it's not the end
Of sunlight on your face
And sweet air to fill your lungs and bring you home

It’s all, all we want to know
All we've waited for
Patiently, cautiously
All, all at the same time
The rhythms and the rhymes
Start making sense once again
All, all your hopes and dreams
Are coming back again
They're coming back again
