Highs & Lows

Ups & downs and highs & lows
All the threads I’ll spin to gold
Twists & turns and bumps in the road
Holding tight and letting go
Holding tight and letting go

When you came ‘round I was in repair
Not quite myself but getting there
And every heartbreak, bruise and tear
Broke me down and led me here
Woke me up and led me here

And the truth is I wish that you would hold me
And make me laugh again
But more than this I want you to be happy
Wherever you may choose to land

So much talking with an ocean in between
Unlikely match turned dream
Yeah we were falling across the sea
I saw a light in you and you in me
I saw a light in you and it felt like home to me

And the truth is I wish that you would hold me
And make me laugh again
But more than this I want you to be happy
Wherever you may choose to land

Are you the sweet surprise, the great unknown
The one who got away, who knows
The road unwinds and so it goes
But the heart won’t be denied
The heart won’t be denied
I know
