[Verse 1] You catch the last word before it falls You give your whole afternoon away Then count the work you left undone And wonder why your hands still ache [Pre-Chorus] I want the summit, every inch I chase it till the colors thin [Chorus] Kind hands, sharp eyes, a heart that runs I lift you up, then miss the sun I love too hard, I reach too far These bright intentions leave their scars Kind hands, sharp eyes—still I begin The strength that trips me pulls me in [Verse 2] I ask the question no one asked I turn the answer twice around I make a promise in a rush Then hear its weight when dusk comes down [Bridge] Let care have limits, let desire rest Let wonder leave one thing unguessed [Chorus] Kind hands, sharp eyes, a heart that runs I lift you up, then miss the sun I love too hard, I reach too far These bright intentions leave their scars Kind hands, sharp eyes—still I begin The strength that trips me pulls me in [Outro] Still I begin
