Surprising Me

from RIVER HOUSE by Taylor Leonhardt

/

lyrics

I once imagined you an old man in the clouds. Maybe you used to speak, but you're too weak and tired now. / But you're surprising me, the way you say my name, a whisper in my ear that kills my fear, revives my faith, revives my faith. / I used to worry, you’d want the perfect words. Into the thinnest air, I said my prayers, I hoped you heard / But you're surprising me, the way your quiet feels. You put your hand against my anxious lips, and make me still, and make me still. / And you're surprising me, you know what makes me hurt. You say you'll never be apart from me, you never were. / And you're surprising me, this joy I never knew. I cannot hold it back, this river that I fell into. I cannot hold it back, this river that is loving you, is loving you.
