One Brave Wish

लिरिक्स

[Verse 1] I wrote it down on a diner receipt Beside the coffee ring and number three One honest chance, one door unlocked One good reason not to watch the clock [Pre-Chorus] I folded that paper, tucked it in my sleeve Not asking for a miracle, just something to believe [Chorus] My wish is small but it carries me far A little more courage than fear in my heart A road that keeps turning, a hand I can hold A story worth telling when I’m finally old If the answer takes time, I’ll still make the choice To send it up steady in my own voice No silver promise, no perfect sky Just one brave wish, and the nerve to try [Verse 2] I left that town with the radio low Past the grain silos and the fields in rows There’s a photograph taped to the dash And a list of mistakes I won’t repeat back [Pre-Chorus] The miles keep rolling, the doubt rides too But every green light looks a little like you [Chorus] My wish is small but it carries me far A little more courage than fear in my heart A road that keeps turning, a hand I can hold A story worth telling when I’m finally old If the answer takes time, I’ll still make the choice To send it up steady in my own voice No silver promise, no perfect sky Just one brave wish, and the nerve to try [Bridge] Maybe it lands in a week or a year Maybe it changes when I get there I don’t need thunder, I don’t need a sign I’ve got both feet on this line [Final Chorus] My wish is small but it carries me far A little more courage than fear in my heart A road that keeps turning, a hand I can hold A life with some weather and someone to know If the answer takes time, I’ll still make the choice To send it up steady in my own voice No silver promise, no perfect sky Just one brave wish, and the nerve to try [Outro] One brave wish, and the nerve to try
