From the place where I now lay my shadow
To my childhood home on Santa Barbara Drive
Although I'm ashamed to say it
I'll admit that I have not yet found my tribe
When the winds of life start hurricaning
There's barely even time to touch the ground
There's so much beauty, so much pain
But I'm learning not to separate… the sounds
So I stretch my crimson cord out
Reaching for a distant shore
Where everything's okay and nothing's aching
And it's a long way across Jordan
There are boats; I can't afford them
So I'll float, to where the current takes me
And sing along
Let it go
It's not easy, I know
Life's a gift
Then it goes, then it's gone
So sing along
And the heart can be a painful dancer
It's much easier to let it turn to stone
And I don't have many answers
I just know that I don't wanna be alone
So sing along
Let me in
We are more than just skin
We are soul, fire and wind
Together strong
And love, we all tend to rust
As we fall back to dust
But you are here
And life is short
And love's the song
So sing along
Sing along, sing along
Sing along
As my song bleeds out with each midnight sky
Let my love run deep, let my hate run dry
They say that some things never die
They go on and on and on… and on and on
Oh sing along
Let me in
We are more than just skin
We are soul, fire and wind
Together strong
And, love, we all tend to rust
We are children of dust
And in the end you can hate
Or trust the song
And sing along
Sing along, sing along
We sing along
