I reach for something I can’t name A feeling just out of view Like a home I’ve never seen But somehow remember There is a pull in my chest Not pain, not joy Just the ache of wanting To belong, to know, to be held (Chorus) I sit with it I don’t turn away It stays I stay This too is part of me The reaching The needing It is not wrong It is not weak (Chorus) The silence does not answer But it listens The breath does not explain But it returns And that is enough I still long But now I know I am not lost Even in the wanting I can be whole Even when I’m reaching Even when I’m waiting I can be here
