SHE MOVES THE WORLD lyrics

Something bad is happing and I Need somewhere warm tonight Then I think about your heartbeat The first home I had in life Before I knew the shape of light Before I learned my name You carried oceans in your body And somehow smiled through pain You move the world without a sound Hold the sky and keep it down Every road begins with you Every old and something new Hands like gravity and grace Love written softly in your face If the whole world learned to shine It probably started in your mind Nine long months of borrowed air Tiny kicks and whispered prayers A universe inside your skin A whole new story could begin I think about the sleepless nights And all the tears you never showed How women carry generations Like sacred fire in their bones Something bad is happing and I Need somewhere warm tonight Then I think about your heartbeat The first home I had in life You gave pieces of yourself So I could someday stand complete A million silent sacrifices Hidden underneath your feet You move the world without a sound Hold the sky and keep it down Every road begins with you Every old and something new Hands like gravity and grace Love written softly in your face If the whole world learned to shine It probably started in your mind So if the stars all lose their light And days get heavy, dark as night I'll still remember where I'm from Your beating heart, my very first Sun You move the world without a sound Hold the sky and keep it down Every road begins with you Every old and something new Hands like gravity and grace Love written softly in your face If the whole world learned to shine It probably started in your mind
