I wrote a letter to myself

Pretended I was you

I swear my handwriting changed a little

Like it was You who told me what to do

You said: Take a deep breath, sweet girl

And take a bird's-eye view

There is nothing out here in the whole wide world

That is ever gonna capsize you

I carry so much but my back don't break

Oh, It never let's me down

And I worry so much but the worry don't change

What I worry about

I can cry, I can cry, I can cry me a river

Deep enough to baptize me

The water's gonna rise til I learn to remember

Nothing's gonna capsize me

I just rode another wave of it

This one caught me by surprise

After so many years of working hard and getting better

I thought I'd left this part of me behind

Then I remember we are made to be

As infinite as anything

And the part of me who shudders

can be a lighthouse for the others

Who need to find the shore when they are lost at sea

You're just like me

I carry so much but my back don't break

It never let's me down

And I worry so much but the worry don't change

What I worry about

I can cry, I can cry, I can cry me a River

Deep enough to Baptize me

The water's gonna rise til I learn to remember

Nothing's gonna capsize me

Rough waters make

Good Sailors

Good Sailors

Rough waters make

Good Sailors

I can cry me a river

I can cry me a river

I can cry

Nothing's gonna capsize me

Water's gonna rise

Nothing's gonna capsize me
