[Verse I] I touch this earth, not as it is But as my skin allows Light through my window, A pattern only I can know [Verse II] Sometimes I see you suffer I see tears, I hear the breath you lose It aches inside my chest As if my ribs could hold your sorrow too [Bridge] I watch for meaning in your movements I love the places where we cross Parallels and gentle tangents Your life, reflected in my loss [Outro] There’s beauty, there is tragedy They bring me here to you I see it now, as gift and ache And wonder what this heart can do
