Lyric

At a hangout on the edge of town

You held a bottle, guitar in hand

I watched you from a distance

Like missing who you used to be back then

Friends with smoke in their tired lungs

Tried to talk you back in time

But you were far too drunk to hear

Any voice but yours and mine

So at least inside your heart

I wanted to send a different breeze

On a half-broken piano

I sang the songs you used to believe

I sang the songs you wrote

Just the way they used to sound

To send a new wind through your heart

In a place this beaten down

In the silence of the bar

You threw a drink straight at my face

The arm that tried to stop you

Left a puddle in its place

From a single tapping foot

To hands clapping loud and strong

We tuned the guitar one last time

And sang together, drunk but one

Your songs still carry truth

Almost too painful to ignore

They lifted every corner

Of that barroom floor

I sang the songs you wrote

And the room began to change

Your words rewrote the night

Washed the bar in sound and flame

Your song climbed every wall

Reached the farthest, darkest seat

A wind blew through your heart

A brand new wind began to rise

If it’s a wind that walks with time

Then we won’t lose from here tonight

We won’t lose, not evermore

A seasonal wind inside your heart

A seasonal wind in all of us
