Took It All lyrics
Song information
Artist: Sarah Harmer Album: All Of Our Names
Lyrics
You said I could have it all You said it to me With your eyes so wide, excited I stop to see what you mean
In the drone of afternoon traffic On a slope that's slippery In the relative fear, invited That keeps us company
We took it all Without taking it away We shook it It didn't blow up in our face This life's abundancy came clear to me
These hands are holding a kite of worry That floats high and circles a pivot of fear In the wind are the words that say "there's no time! hurry!" So we grab what we can We think the end is near
We took it all Without taking it away We shook it It didn't blow up in our face This life's abundancy came clear
We can get back up We can move from this ground To where there is enough of everything What has opened up this crevice at our feet Has created a new sense of urgency
Without taking it away We shook it It didn't blow up in our face This life's abundancy came clear
