Because It Moves Me

I don't know what to do with these hands of mine It looks like I've got twenty fingers where they're shaking all the time I am a child, I know that always But I'm a daughter, and that I constantly forget I've got a head that's like a bomb just threatening to detonate And a heart that pumps as well as any other but still aches I'm in love with an unforeseen version of a person I've already met And I am humbled and afraid of all the things that I know that I don't know yet They say work hard They say play They say work hard They say play But they think hard work is a montage from a movie And I keep playing the same song because it moves me Sometimes I feel the way I light the room As warm as any sun but shines like only can the moon Yeah, for all that I can be I am more when I can see how bad he wants to be my fool And I'm learning to get over feeling small Yeah, most people, when they meet me now, they treat me really tall Yeah, for all that I may be I am nothing so quickly when he don't call And I am humbled and afraid to break a thing that I have never touched at all They say love hard They say don't stay They say love hard But don't give it all away But they think true love is a montage from a movie And I keep sticking to this man 'cause he still moves me I don't know if I've missed the point by now If the winds I kept at bay have finally blown my house right down I put all my energy toward saving one thing To watch everything else drown But there's got to be a fire that burns above Even with my shaking hands I can still grasp that kind of love It is safe and it is real It's the kind that makes you feel forever young And I am humbled and afraid that I won't know it when it finally shows up They say work hard They say play They say love hard Then run away Maybe life is just a montage from a move But I'll keep repeating the same song long as it moves me
