I feel it in my roots
A sleepless hunger
Breathing through my baby blues as if I've gotten younger
Since I checked my baggage at the door
It sat and watched me leave
Now I am free
Cause we are walking and talking
And everybody knows I've got a lot to say
And we are running between the green, green blades of grass
And our toes are stained black with the earth
For today I'll table every heartbreak memory
You can't take that from me
Every possibility is like a new discovery to me
My heart is beating like a drum beneath the summer sun
You've got that look in your eye
And you have only just begun to see the side of me
That laughs and smiles easily in love
[chorus]
Cause we've got sparks like a loose live wire
And we've got heat like a bright blue fire
And we know we're both a part of something bigger than we are
We are
Well ain't it funny how easily the limerence slips underneath your skin
And when your good mood collides with the hues of the sky
There's a thousand destinations
Some within my heart and others deep inside of you
I've had awhile to see, and baby
It's all beautiful to me
Your heart is beating with the speed of twenty shooting stars
You've got that look in your eye
I'll put down my guitar and we can coin a melody
That captures us exactly as we are
[chorus]
Cause we've got sparks like a loose live wire
And we've got heat like a bright blue fire
And we know we're both a part of something bigger than we are
And we know love comes in little pieces
And truth comes in moments like this
The unpredictability of someone else's kiss
Let's take a moment now to celebrate our own two feet
Somehow they led us here and now we're dancing in the street
And I know my journey here was worth the pain I felt and feared
Cause now I am free
And I am walking and talking and everybody knows I've got a lot to say
And I've been writing a song the whole night long
And the words come in bursts
Cause you know it's the first time
That I feel certain of the world's uncertainty
And that feels good to me now
