Sturdy

I don't know where to start Tangled up in loose ends Sturdy on the small parts I'm almost halfway there Closer than a stone's throw Further than a lost heart Tie me up within the tight rope Cut me loose, so I can unfold Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Hold hope deep within You are fighting farther than my wildest dreams went So close you have been Tether never larger ever than a loose grip I break with just a touch I can't stop the bleeding You can stop the whole rush So as the wind runs still Patience by the waters Raging like the dry brush All the streams will be your cool touch While the fire binds my wounds up Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Hold hope deep within You are fighting farther than my wildest dreams went So close you have been Tether never larger ever than a loose grip There's a longing while I limp home Like the crying of an old crow Will the ember always grow cold Will the rain dry by tomorrow All the treasure I've been troving Never held a hope worth holding Walk the tight rope to the growing Finally caught in freedom flowing Hold hope deep within You are fighting farther than my wildest dreams went So close you have been Tether never larger ever than a loose grip
