You Are Loved Lyrics

So you trip on the roots of your family tree

Long for the life you expected to see

But the branches are knotted with wounds of the wind

It's hard to imagine spring coming again

Let's leave all the leaves on the ground where they lie

Stare up through the branches at the purpling sky

Rest our heads on those leaves until we can dream

Of the brown wood above us all dripping with green

Tell your story

I will listen

I'll say all the wrong things like I usually do

And make jokes when 
I shouldn't

And confuse me with you

But there at the end I hope you'll understand

You are loved

You are loved

You are loved

You are loved

The whole world is moving, though it seems we are still

Tilting back toward the sun, so let's shake off this chill

I will light up the fire, set the kettle for tea

Get your warmest of blankets, and curl up next to me

And that will not make all the pain go away

Or bring back the bright sun to these darkest of days

But perhaps it will warm us with just enough light

To hold on through the hours of this longest of nights

Tell your story

I will listen

I'll say all the wrong things like I usually do

And make jokes when 
I shouldn't

And confuse me with you

But there at the end I hope you'll understand

You are loved

You are loved

You are loved

You are loved
