You don’t know where it began
You held hope in time unfolding
But it’s all in your hands
In your self-healing heart
The words are on paper through silent cries found
Like a fountain without water
All penny-less and dry
Like a child without a dream
To guide them through night
It is the voice of reason
Like a soothing lullaby
Standing upon the shore
Looking out to sunrise
And as the words on the paper take flight in your mind
You ask yourself can a song save your life.
It is the arms of a hero
As they cradle you tight
Like the strength of euphoria
Lifting you high
And as the words wrote on paper flow free with the tide
You ask yourself can a song save your life

"This is a song of hope, nothing more nothing less. Hope.
The song itself really came from nowhere and feel like it formed itself. I feel it may be one of my strongest songs. I hope you do too.
This version was recorded as a live single take in my kitchen, just like most of my demo recordings. No fluff, all love, live and raw. Thank you for listening, downloading and supporting please share with a loved one." - dunkie
