lyrics

and with your smile I stopped
like a wind knocked out
6 a.m. in the parking lot
it was love, no doubt
oh, we were young
and your eyes took me
to where I knew I should be
I said “when I’m dead, I’ll sleep
but for now hold me.”

and that’s where I live
when missives and mountains come between us
and I hold to the levee ever-tight
‘cause I know it’s right

and when pirates came
and took it all away
my heart said “stay”
but I went anyway
oh, I was young
and as time went by
we saw separate skies
but when I closed my eyes
you were by my side

and that’s where you live
in the peace I am given in my dreams
so I hold to the haven of the night
that’s when I feel right

if we can walk through hell
with the hand we’re dealt
build a vessel, dig a well
shoulder the swells

well as long as I live
I will stand in the storms the heavens give
and I’m here, I’ll hold on, I’m gonna fight
we’re gonna make it right
we’re gonna be alright
