[Verse 1] The forecast keeps changing its mind The ferry is tied to the pier You fold up the map in your hands And ask if the road is still here I don't have a promise to sell Or a light that can tell us the way But your name is a fact I can hold When the rest of the facts fall away [Pre-Chorus] One step, then another The ground may move beneath us Still, I can reach you Still, you can reach me [Chorus] When the answer disappears When the far shore can't be seen Hope is not a perfect view It's your hand finding mine in between If the morning takes its time If the plan comes apart again We can carry one small yes Through the weather, through the wind [Verse 2] The kitchen clock skips at the hour A cup leaves a ring on the wood You laugh at the leak in the roof And somehow the laugh says we could The news keeps its grip on the room The phone keeps on lighting your face I turn it to silent and stay Right here in this unfinished place [Pre-Chorus] One step, then another The ground may move beneath us Still, I can reach you Still, you can reach me [Chorus] When the answer disappears When the far shore can't be seen Hope is not a perfect view It's your hand finding mine in between If the morning takes its time If the plan comes apart again We can carry one small yes Through the weather, through the wind [Bridge] No grand sign in the window No map with every turn Just the bread warming slowly And the names we still remember If all we know is this moment Then this moment is enough You are here, I am here And we have not given up [Final Chorus] When the answer disappears When the far shore can't be seen Hope is not a perfect view It's your hand finding mine in between If the morning takes its time If the plan comes apart again We can carry one small yes Through the weather, through the wind We can carry one small yes And begin, and begin
