歌詞

I remember late one night How the stars ancient light Seemed to reach right down from the sky Wonder finds us where it will Stay open and be still And trust what's in front of your eyes Tomorrow's sun is bound to rise and set On the promises we haven't broken yet We'll do all of that and more That's what growing older is for Pick your battles, lose your wars And forgive what's left I remember being alone Wondering how I'd make it home Breaking bottles on the stones in my path It was all so long ago, all the trouble and the woe Yet I'm still cleaning up broken glass We're all just cosmic dust from outer space And we'll be gone one day without a trace But in between we may divine In the fullness of time The fine line between a gift and a mistake I'll remember the saving graces And those old super 8s Where we raced like sparks down the sand The bargain life insists upon From you and me, we just get one It's always been out of our hands But after life's big acts and its interludes Are quiet mornings of coffee and gratitude And a coda without words And the poetry of birds And the wild and brave and shining hearts You mattered to
