Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was raised to reckon love as something borrowed
A thing that breaks or leaves or turns to dust
I saw my father's hands go still and hollow
And learned to keep my distance, learned mistrust
[Verse 2]
Then you stood there by the fence line in October
Your dress the color of the turning leaves
Something in my chest went tight and over
Like a well rope snapping free
[Chorus]
My heart don't beat the way it used to
It stumbles when you're near
I spent so long afraid of wanting
Now all I want is here
[Verse 3]
We sat beneath the oak behind the chapel
You spoke of staying, spoke of taking root
I thought of every reason not to answer
Then saw your worn boot next to mine, and knew
[Verse 4]
There's a scar along my palm from baling wire
A reminder that some things will draw blood
But I would reach through fire and briar
To lay my hand in yours, if that's enough
[Chorus]
My heart don't beat the way it used to
It stumbles when you're near
I spent so long afraid of wanting
Now all I want is here
[Outro]
Now all I want is here
Now all I want is here
