Intro
Verse 1
I Sat With The Quiet
Longer Than I Meant
Every Hard Sentence
Still Sat In My Head
And Still The Dark Kept Asking, For The Rest Of Me
Verse 2
I Didn’t Want A Speech
I Wanted The Volume Down
The List, The Ache, The Almost
Letting The Clock Run Out
I Just Didn’t Want To Be The One Left Behind
Chorus
I Don’t Call It Flying
I Don’t Call It Peace
I Call It The Spirit Wanting Out Of The Lease
It Was One Thin Thought
As I Was Leaving The Light
When I Heard The Voice Of A Friend In The Night
Verse 3
I’ve Known That Kind Of Weather
The Kind That Just Won’t Break
As It Sits On Your Mind And Names You
You May Start To Believe
That The World Would Be Kinder If You Weren’t On The Ride
Bridge
But That Is A Lie
That Wears A Soft Voice
It Talks Like Mercy, But It Is Goodbye
The Morning Still Comes
The Dog Still Needs The Door
Somebody Still Needs To Put The Coffee On The Stove
Chorus
I Don’t Call It Flying
I Don’t Call It Peace
I Call It The Spirit Wanting Out Of The Lease
It Was One Thin Thought
As I Was Leaving The Light
When I Heard The Voice Of A Friend In The Night
