This Is How My Song Goes

I can still hear you say

“Give up on yourself

You give up on me”

Oh, mother of my children

Anchor of my soul

With all that I've been given

I should thank the Lord

And if life is just a tale to tell

I don't want a tragedy

I want a love story

All I've ever known

Been my beacon home

It's the water of my soul

All I've ever known

It's my blood ‘n bone

It's the water of my soul

This is how my song goes

This is how my song goes

Anywhere the wind blows

This is how my song goes

I tried to see myself

Through the mirror of the world

But the image returned

Distorted and cracked

The more that I travel

The more it comes back

To you and me

And all the simple things

It's the song we sing

This is how my song goes

This is how my song goes

No matter wherever the wind blows

This is how my song goes

This is how my song goes

This is how my song goes

Where there used to be walls I got windows

This is how my song goes
