Belonging

I climbed the heights so I could see

Every promise that the dawn could offer me

But I got lost and stayed too long

I came down to find that everyone moved on

So now I’m lost in my nomadic life

Everywhere I go I see the souls are intwined

It’s been so long I don’t know what to try

Maybe it’s the shape of me that doesn’t fit right

Is there a place I can belong?

Where I’m known and I’m desired, known and I’m desired

I crave a love that feels like home

So I’m holding on to find it, holding on to find it

Yes I know

I need a love that’s undivided

Need to know I’m not an island

Need an answer for my longing

An embrace I can belong in

I saw my life branch out from me

All the fruit that I could have was beckoning

But in my greed I froze, I wanted everything

I let them wither up and fall towards my feet

I drift alone, unbound so I can rise

Scared to pay the cost of staking roots in this life

As long as I keep working all the time

I’ll forget the pain if I’m distracting my mind

Is there a place I can belong?

Where I’m known and I’m desired, known and I’m desired

I crave a love that feels like home

So I’m holding on to find it, holding on to find it

Yes I know, I need a love that’s undivided

Need to know I’m not an island

Need an answer for my longing

An embrace I can belong in

And I’ve been trying to keep my head up high

Above the waves, and keep my eyes upon the shore

Treading water like I see them do

It looks so effortless but I am getting sore

Terrified that I will spend my life

Nothing to hold on to, belong to, I need more

I long to dive so deep and walk the ocean floor

With someone to share the wreckages that came before

Cos I know that I can find it

Everything I wanted and

I know who can provide it

Oh I am reminded that, yeah

There is a place where I belong

Where I’m known and I’m desired, known and I’m desired

Nothing I do can change this love

I am home, I can’t deny it, home, I can’t deny it

I need a love that’s undivided

Need to know I’m not an island

Need an answer for my longing

An embrace I can belong in

I need a love that’s undivided

Need to know I’m not an island

Need an answer for my longing

An embrace I can belong in

I need a love that’s undivided

Need to know I’m not an island

Need an answer for my longing

An embrace I can belong in
