Inspired by Sarah McDermott's trombone improvisation and The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge.

lyrics

Looking out at the night you were feeling alright
With the earth at your back, moon and stars above you
Heaven’s art worked on your heart from so far away
And it seemed to say it loved you

So what about the closer
that seem to blur when you focus in?
They want you so bad, they need you so much
it should be straight- But who can you trust with your love?

It was like a sunrise when you opened your eyes
and the night gave way on the day you got that feeling
Someone showed the door you’d never seen before
and you crossed the floor towards the light with your heart reeling

But out on the road it can seem so cold And your lonely heart is looking for an echo You want it so bad,you need it so much
It should be straight, but who can you trust with your love?

I met a man who understands that silence is loud And the toll the noise is taking
You need to step back from the crowd
To take the time to hear your own heart breaking

Opinions hit you like a storm
Now your sails are battered and torn Set adrift from your love

Looking out at the night you were feeling alright
With the earth at your back, moon and stars above you Heaven’s art worked on your heart from so far away
And it seemed to say it loved you

But you had to look back over your shoulder They turned to slat when they saw you there
What could they say about wiser and older?
There is no end to your love?
You cannot run from your love

Nothing compares to your love
Everyone for your love
