The Space Between

The sun came back, in one fell swoop

A sequence of grievances turned to grace

Yearnin' in the birds murmurin' above the rains pass as fast as love

Like shadows changin' shape

What remains holds the weight, holds the weight

Spin me away, heavy light

Finally, there is room for me in the space between

As the flint strikes quick on the stone

There's a redemption in the fragile bone

As the brightness of sorrow punctures through the armor

I've built around the harm, and I'm sinkin' into the arms

I'm livin' into the changin' light

I wish you had been there, wish you were more aware of me

In this body, there's a heart beatin'

And it's my heart

And it's your heart, I've needed

I needed better (better, better, better)

And I don't forgive

I let it live in the space between

What's gone and what's given

And if there is another way, let it move me

And if there is a way out, let it be through me
