lyrics

Effortlessly

I sang a song in a canyon
To hear myself echo for miles
I was lost til you found me
Didn’t know I was there all the while
You knelt down in the dirt and the sand
Said you’ll keep me, if it’s all the same
Lifetime promises on my hand
as you asked me to take your name

You seem to bring out the best of me
And the other parts no one’s seen
You put up with all the rest of me
And you did it all
Effortlessly

I once ran away from all in my way
Just to keep myself from falling down
Now I got you to dust me right off
Keep me from runnin ‘out of this town
cuz everywhere you go I’ll go
I’ll follow you down til the end
You can lay me down to sleep
And forgive me all my sins

You seem to bring out what was lost in me
And some other parts I’ve never seen
You tore down the walls surrounding me
And you barged right through
Effortlessly

Bridge

True to your word you took care of every single thing
You reached right in and pulled me through the fire rings
My ultra reliable safety net if I fall from the trapeze

You walked me through the broken glass
Free from cuts or scrapes or scars
Baptized me in the pouring rain
It was right then I saw who you are
And I’ll keep you if it’s all the same
You can follow me down til the end
Cuz I will lay you down to sleep and
Forgive you all your sins

You seem to bring out the best of me
And all the broken parts buried so deep
And you can bet it all on this hand we got
That I’ll love you
Effortlessly
