lyrics

The thrill of being five years old
When he thinks about one thing he thinks about one thing
It's like his heart could just explode
I know that burning, I know that yearning too

The wisdom feeling of 24
When he thinks about one thing, he thinks about her
Now he’s not so self assured
I know that world view
I’ve seen that girl too

I remember the stars growing up in Georgia
They don't shine as bright tonight in California
I've walked a thousand miles, and I've been a thousand people
In this life- in this holy light

And the only thing I'll ever know is
Life is bigger than we are
And it's mending and breaking and it's radiating
We are one beating heart, we are one, we are one
We are one beating heart

The wisdom of my dad the carpenter
When he thinks about one thing
He thinks about all things
Like time and symmetry and form
I’ll build my own house on my father’s old house

A thousand voices in this tide
Some are yours and some are mine
Won't you wade with me in the water
I hear my grandfather I hear my granddaughter

I remember the stars growing up in Georgia
They don't shine as bright tonight in California
I've walked a thousand miles, and I've been a thousand people
In this life- in this holy light

And the only thing I'll ever know is
Life is bigger than we are
And it's mending and breaking and it's radiating
We are one beating heart, we are one, we are one
We are one beating heart

The wisdom of a falling star
We're all just stage hands
In a play that
We could never understand
I've seen the sunset
I have no regrets
