    What's a "Micro Music Video"? A tiny, simple and hypnotizing video accompaniment to my songs. Rather than seeing a static image, I loved the idea of having a visual to get lost in while listening.
    Lyrics:
    It began with a whisper in my ear, "I think it's time."
    Suddenly all we held dear was on the line
    As your heart, measured in mountains, fell and climbed.
    “You're okay, you're okay, you're okay. We’re okay.”
    Amen.
    We were changed in an instant,
    We became so much more.
    Our definition of perfect
    Was written when she was born.
    As she drew her first breath,
    I learned what love meant
    And my heart reconciled
    All the darkness and light inside my chest.
    As her hands held tight
    And her eyes met mine,
    I saw the future unfold in silver and gold.
    And I’m already proud.
    Beautiful like your mother,
    You are grace. You are light.
    A better version of our best
    From your starting line.
    We will learn from each other,
    As you grow up, we will too.
    In our reflections of one another,
    We will start something new.
    We were changed in an instant,
    We became so much more.
    Our definition of perfect
    Was written when you were born.
    There is so much to tell you.
    There is so much to see.
    We will show you the oceans
    And everything in between.
    What a privilege to love you,
    To teach you all that we know,
    To watch you build a collection of dreams
    That you can call your own.
    You are beautiful like your mother,
    You are grace. You are light.
    A better version of our best
    From your starting line.
    We were changed in an instant,
    We became so much more.
    Our definition of perfect
    Was written when you were born.

    The part that makes me cry EVERY. TIME:
    "As she drew her first breath,
    I learned what love meant
    And my heart reconciled
    All the darkness and light inside my chest.
    As her hands held tight
    And her eyes met mine,
    I saw the future unfold in silver and gold.
    And I’m already proud."

    This song is about his daughter.

    I guess that's the power of Ryan's music

    this reminds me so much of my youngest sister. in my family of six- where i am the eldest, and i have three younger siblings- i felt deeply attached to my youngest sister. of course, i love the three of them dearly, but with my three year old sister on the line, i could feel this sense of love and admiration to this beautiful creature. she felt so fragile and innocent that i wanted to protect her from everything. i wanted to show her everything in this world- both the bad and the good- and that she deserves so much more. i wanted to change for her, to become the goodness for her in more ways than one. she is but a little child, but i love her so much. she probably doesn't realize it today, but i hope she feels warmth with me as she gets older. :))

    Sleeping At Last Lyrics
    Track "Sleeping At Last"
    on Bandsintown
    "Life"
    It began
    With a whisper in my ear:
    "I think it's time."
    Suddenly all we held dear was on the line.
    As your heart measured in mountains fell and climbed.
    You're okay, you're okay, you're okay, you're okay.
    Amen.
    We were changed in an instant.
    We became so much more.
    Our definition of perfect was written when she was born.
    She drew her first breath out of what love meant.
    In my heart, reconciled all the darkness and light inside my chest.
    As her hands held tight.
    And her eyes met mine, I saw the future unfold in sliver and gold.
    And I'm already proud.
    Beautiful like your mother,
    You are grace, you are light.
    The better version of our past.
    From the start of life.
    We will learn from each other.
    As you grow up, we will too.
    And our reflections of one another.
    We will start something new.
    We were changed in an instant.
    We became so much more.
    Our definition of perfect was written when you were born.
    There is so much to tell you.
    There is so much to see.
    We will show you the oceans, and everything in between.
    What a privilege to love you,
    To teach you all that we know.
    To watch you build a collection of dreams that you can call your own.
    You are beautiful like your mother.
    You are grace, you are light. Oh.
    A better version of our past.
    From the start of life.
    We were changed in an instant,
    When we became so much more. Oh.
    Our definition of perfect was written when you were born.

    Começou
    Com um sussurro no meu ouvido: Eu acho que está na hora
    De repente, tudo o que nos agarramos estava na linha
    Enquanto seu coração, medido em montanhas, caiu e subiu
    Você está bem, você está bem, você está bem. Nós estamos bem
    Amém
    Nós mudamos em um instante
    Nos tornamos muito mais
    Nossa definição de perfeito
    Foi escrita quando ela nasceu
    Enquanto ela dava o seu primeiro suspiro
    Eu aprendi o que significava amor
    E meu coração reconciliou toda luz e escuridão
    Dentro do meu peito
    Enquanto suas mãos apertavam forte
    E seus olhos encontravam o meu
    Eu vi o futuro se desenrolar
    Em prata e dourado
    E eu já estou orgulhoso
    Linda como sua mãe
    Você é graça
    Você é luz
    Uma versão melhor do nosso melhor
    Desde o começo
    Nós vamos aprender um com o outro
    Enquanto você cresce, cresceremos também
    Em nossos reflexos
    Criaremos algo novo
    Nós mudamos em um instante
    Nos tornamos muito mais
    Nossa definição de perfeito
    Foi escrita quando você nasceu
    Há tanto que eu quero te contar
    Há tanto para ver
    Nós te mostraremos os oceanos
    E tudo que há entre eles
    Que privilégio é te amar
    Te ensinar tudo que sabemos
    Vê-la construir uma coleção de sonhos
    Para chamá-los de seu
    Você é linda como a sua mãe
    Você é graça
    Você é luz
    Uma versão melhor do nosso melhor
    Desde o começo
    Nós mudamos em um instante
    Nos tornamos muito mais
    Nossa definição de perfeito
    Foi escrita quando você nasceu
