[Intro]
You carved our initials
Into these family trees
But when the branches are bare and broken
Love is so hard to reach
Oh
[Verse 1]
We've learned to brace for the worst
And to read the last pages first
Surrender feels safe
[Chorus 1]
Maybe the soul is the soil that holds the fallen seed
Or the light pouring down in between the rain clouds
Daring life to reach
Maybe it's the rings in the trunk of the tree
A birthmark time will leave
To measure the past
Oh
[Bridge]
But we can't dream when we're wide awake
Or fall in love with a heart too strong to break
Faith is expensive to taste
And time, time is borrowed loose change
That's already been spent
You carved our initials
Into these family trees
But when the branches are bare and broken
Love is so hard to reach
Oh
[Verse 1]
We've learned to brace for the worst
And to read the last pages first
Surrender feels safe
[Chorus 1]
Maybe the soul is the soil that holds the fallen seed
Or the light pouring down in between the rain clouds
Daring life to reach
Maybe it's the rings in the trunk of the tree
A birthmark time will leave
To measure the past
Oh
[Bridge]
But we can't dream when we're wide awake
Or fall in love with a heart too strong to break
Faith is expensive to taste
And time, time is borrowed loose change
That's already been spent
