Words That Live

[Verse 1]
We were punished by the waiting
On two roads that had no end
Then a whisper in the silence
A small story could begin
Something fragile started breathing
A little chapter underneath
A simple truth we started seeing

[Chorus]
We were castaways on a ship that learned to sail the sea
And if time put on the chains, it also set us free
'Cause a story from the soul will always stay and be

[Verse 2]
You left behind those letters
Not knowing what they'd mean
A tiny piece of our beginning
The years would keep it clean
I see them now from far away
And know behind those words
Was the first path that we would take

[Bridge]
Maybe we were two people who didn't have a clue
But something deep inside of us was begging to push through
So remember how this ocean began, between the fear and heart

[Outro]
That little note you wrote me is still a glowing sign
Some words are only read, but yours are still alive
