lyrics

The canary who can’t sing mumbles through a melody
Softly indistinct like a child learning to speak
The balloon with no string, no hand to hold or carry me
Floating out of reach far beyond the eye can see

Say I love you to the rearview
Wanting more, but I’m not making any room
Pray with faith to make the mountains move
I love you more now than I ever knew

Church bells are ringing and babies are born
Everywhere I turn
Should make me laugh and fill me with warmth
Instead it makes me burn
A time to weep and a time for mourning
Season to die and lives to be forming
Dress the wounds and stay for the healing
Magnify that voice that I’m hearing

Old made new
Trust in you

Say I love you to the rearview
Wanting more, but I’m not making any room
Pray with faith to make the mountains move
I don’t know how
But I love you more now than I ever knew
