Gratitude

(album: Blue Hours - 2022)

It's a form of gratitude
That when my thoughts turn to you
A pen can feel so heavy
With ink enough for a violent flood
Breaching the levee

I still couldn't lay a glove
On what I feel for you
As the rain pours down

And it's so like you
To show up here right when I least expect you to
I started driving not knowing where I was gonna go
And you appear, hair blowing outside the window
Saying, "I know a place we could go"

Little light, please shine forever
I call you out so that I'll always remember
Take me with you wherever it is you wanna go

In my weaker moments
I still find you there
Offering a way out, a way out of here
Outta sight, out of mind
We could be outside of time
If you just give me the sign
I won't leave you behind

We pull up at the old waterfalls
Where we watched the water form a wall
Outside the caves of Bearsden
Your eyes would light up whenever you spoke of them
I went out looking to try and find
A memory of you
That stays kind
I know a place we could go

Little light, please shine forever
I call you out so that I'll always remember
Take me with you wherever it is you wanna go

In my weaker moments
I still find you there
Offering a way out, a way out of here
Outta sight, out of mind
We could be outside of time
If you'd just give me the sign
I won't leave you behind

In my weaker moments
I still find you there
Offering a way out, a way out of here
Outta sight, out of mind
We could be outside of time
If you'd just give me the sign
I won't leave you behind

It's a form of gratitude
That when my thoughts turn to you
A pen can feel so heavy
With ink enough for a violent flood
Breaching the levee
