I threw a coin into a fountain
On a mountain top in Rome
The water lit from underneath so you could see how deep it didn't go
I wished for cinematic love
Or some approximation of it
Like somebody else's bravery could ever be the thing to save me
On a birthday candle's flame
I wished to glorify my given name
And prove my worth by making myself known
I watch the years collect and gather
And my bright future knows I'm staring at her
And she never asks about the glory, she just wants a love story
In the Colorado skies
There is the bluest bird with the blackest eyes
Who fascinates a stranger who just shared with me he lost his wife
Five days ago he softly said
50 years of loving her, and when she held my hand and said goodbye
She said, "Don't give up, I'll send you signs"
He stared up at the heavens
And the tears rolled down his face
He told me I was living proof of her to him that very day
It took my breath away, his sadness
And I held it to my chest
And I let it break me open and be blessed
Be blessed
Demolish me, my Maker
I could ask for nothing more
I will build the deepest wishing well from the tears upon my kitchen floor
A childhood made of wishes
Naïve and superficial
Compared to what is given, they don't even hold a candle
Nothing that I've asked for
Has ever been as true
As what was coming for me when it comes from You
Nothing that I've asked for
Has ever been as true
As what was coming for me when it comes from You
Nothing that I've asked for
Has ever been as true
As what was coming for me when it comes from You
Nothing that I've asked for
Has ever been as true
As what was coming for me when it comes from You
