grateful

Heaven only knows I've been down Couldn't see the sun behind the clouds Wondered if it'd ever come out again Snug inside the arms of loneliness 19 candles out before we kissed Nights of my youth, hardly missed But I say whoever wrote this story Crafted one hell of an arc The bits of me I couldn't stand are my favorite parts Never used to take the time to recognize Everything I need is right in my line of sight And I don't know my destination but I've come to learn The universe gives you the answers on it's own terms Through the highs and through the lows I look up to the sky I know the world is mine I feel so fucking grateful I'm so, so fucking grateful We took the long way 'round Been in the lost and found I feel so fucking grateful I'm just so fucking grateful Yeah, heaven really knows I overthink Do a thousand takes and pick the fifth Get overwhelmed by every little thing (little thing, little thing) Remember being a kid and wild and free Playing Rapunzel from the balcony Thinking I didn't care How you'd see me Good day Yeah, we're sitting on a park bench in the thick of spring I write these words and watch the daffodils sway in the wind I never used to take the time to look around Or pay attention to the different layers of sound It's so funny how we run to where we need to be That we never get to take in the scenery I don't wanna live my life that way I look up to the sky I know the world is mine I feel so fucking grateful I'm so, so fucking grateful We took the long way 'round Been in the lost and found I feel so fucking grateful I'm just so fucking grateful Yeah, I don't want this day to end We watch the sun make its descent I ask if you've got somewhere else to be We talk into the dead of night Share history in the dwindling light And thank the stars for here is where we've reached
