The Joy and the Wonder

from See Those Landing Lights by Divine Weeks

/

lyrics

Sunday morning, I’m all in my head
All those feelings of dread coming on.
I’ve always been a little bit mad
Always searching for my missing half.
I took the love I thought I deserved
And at every turn, I got burned.
I was in pieces, coming undone.
You took my scattered selves and made them one.

ch. She freed me from the madness in my soul.
So I could chase the joy and the wonder.

Our love was written up there in the stars.
You’re the most beautiful thing I ever saw.
You were a vision of a lovesick moon
That pulled at the tide and brought me you.

ch.

Bridge: Now with my penance done.
There’s one thing I know.
You were the only one…who loved my pilgrim soul…(2)

In our hallowed place that we made sunshine on your face, your beautiful face.
And for one moment, the world seemed right the darkness gave way to light.

ch. She was the wave that pulls me under.
And now we chase the joy and the wonder.
