Lyrics

I’ve spent a lot of time this year trying to fix what came undone
My thimbled hand a mess with strings, lines waited to be sung
The days and weeks of ups and downs,
Just when I couldn’t take much more
Old Winter’s weave halt at its seam
when Springtime knocked upon my door. It said,

Chorus
It takes a little love and a lot of rain to make the flowers grow
A little patience and a lot of heart
to see the truths you’ve always known
Times can get heavy, we’re pulled here and here
but your breath is your shadow
It takes some time to mend and begin again

I looked out at the trees that nestle near where I stay
I felt some wisdom pouring through the sun on that quiet day
Oh, they say it’s at the darkest when we feel the light
That our weakest breath gives us our greatest fight
Courageous hearts can fear the night when the stars are far away.
But... (Chorus)

So I listened to the rain, took my time along my way
I saw the Spring unfold its wings, watch Summer fly away
And those ups and downs seemed less and less
Found the joy and strength that only comes with the rest
Oh, Autumn’s gold was the truest test
that the treasures on the way. (Chorus)


It takes some time to mend and begin again.
