** LYRICS **
When two souls meet
And the whole world feels new
Shared moments sweet
All colors bright and true
And there is laughter
And there are good things growing everywhere
And I’m happy to be in this place with you
And I’m happy to be in this place
You let it out
You laid it all across the table
What’s this about?
And you’re making me unstable
And I don’t want to go down this road with you
No I don’t want to go down this road
I want to go
But I can’t, and I won’t
I’ll learn to sew
Up the wounds that I broke
Open with you
‘Cause I knew, and I chose
And I don’t feel at home in this world anymore
No I don’t feel at home in this world
We rein it in
And there is better understanding
Nobody wins
If there is flight without the landing
And we learn
To keep our hearts in time
Try not to burn
The careful ties that bind us together
And I’m taking the long way around with you
I’m taking the long way around
And I’m happy to be in this place with you
And I’m taking the long way around

super - piękny kawałek
listened to this lying in bed on a Friday night, staring up at the ceiling. this song was a beautiful accompaniment to the strange mix of emotions I’m feeling rn. mostly I’m tired. It’s late. I’ll come back and read the lyrics properly another time, Gaelynn, because I know you always write such good ones. “good” being the understatement of the century. thank you for the music
Just love all that you do. Thank you so very much for your beautiful music! I feel blessed that I found you! Hugs and love.
Most enjoyable. Thankyou. R.

Beautifully done, Gaelynn! I love the layering you do with your instrument. I'm not that multifaceted! ;P Good job and great message. Love you! (your Moms cousin Ruth)
❤❤❤ You and your voice soothe me.
Wonderful!
At the start when you were doing that loop thing I thought aw no not another artsy fartsy thing then once you started to play it was beautiful, loved it! I don't feel at home here either by the way!
Gaelynn you are a sweetheart. Your music envelops my thoughts as the world envelops us.
God Bless 🐰

I love this song so unbelievable much. The sound, the story, the feeling. This is one of my all-time favourite tunes. It speaks to me on every level, and makes me appreciate my loved ones even more. I'm trying to learn it on my piano and sing as well. Just something nice for the heart to hold. And I'll get there no matter how long the road.
Much, m u c h love
Poul

I'll tell you what she gets some killer Sistine out of that violin I mean she plays a couple notes and they continue to ring out for 25 minutes later that violin must be a stratococci
