BETTER

We're running down church street in the rain And I won't say her name anymore Autumn clears the conscience like confession And God, these last few years taught have taught me some lessons I want your heart to be my safe place I know you're healing at a different pace You're moving in to mine and it feels right this time Love is not the answer but I'll make it mine So write names in the sand for me Don't sit back quiet, I need all of you when all I see is blue weather So put your heart on the line for me 'cause I've walked through fire to see That all I want to do is learn to love you better All of the broken pieces of your heart that she left All of the healing that only happens in the next All of the fear you're holding deep inside of your chest All of the feelings that come to surface with each breath And I'm not scared of truth, I'm scared of lies I've cut down on my drinking but it's hard sometimes I'm thinking 'bout the big things, is it too soon? It's new for me, I'm sorry that it's not for you You challenge me and I need that And you touch me like your hands are meant to be there And you crave, the way you look at me in the morning I want to set in your horizon line, I want any-, everything So write names in the sand for me Don't sit back quiet, I need all of you when all I see is blue weather So put your heart on the line for me 'cause I've walked through fire to see That all I want to do is learn to love you better All of the broken pieces of your heart that she left All of the healing that only happens in the next All of the fear you're holding deep inside of your chest All of the feelings that come to surface with each breath So write names in the sand for me Don't sit back quiet, I need all of you when all I see is blue weather So put your heart on the line for me 'cause I've walked through fire to see That all I want to do is learn to love you better
