My Roots Go Deep

[Verse 1]
I keep it on
This ring, the feather of a swan
You gave to me some years ago
In the land of fire and snow
In those days we burned brighter than the sun
As we came together as one

[Verse 2]
Can't take it off
This weathered token of our love
You made for me when we were new
From threads of dreams in shades of blue
In those days we made circles 'round the moon
And those timеs were over too soon

[Pre-Chorus]
But Lord, I do not weep upon waking from a sleep
Drеaming of heaven
For I remember all too well how close heaven is to hell
And all of them crash landings I've endured

[Chorus]
I am letting down my roots
I am getting good at being still
I have stopped chasing after things
I am like the church upon a hill
I allow all things to come to me
I am a tall and mighty tree
I can weather any storm, 'cause
My roots go deep, my roots go deep
My roots go deep, my roots go deep
My roots go deep, my roots go deep

[Bridge]
Don't you ever wish there was a word
In a language everybody understands
You could say when words were not enough
To explain to others what your heart commands
By uttering the word our hearts would open
Communicating freely without fear
The fear we've held about speaking our truth
When it might be difficult to hear
We would find it easier just to listen
Synchronised in every single beat
In a place of purest love and deepest wisdom
Maybe we would finally get to meet

[Outro]
