Kettle Singing

Lyrics

[Verse 1] May the kettle sing before the morning rush May you find a little peace in the hands you trust When the map gets folded and the signs run out Take the next small step; you’ll figure it out [Pre-Chorus] There’s no perfect answer waiting in the blue Just a heart that knows what matters most to you [Chorus] So take the road that leaves you room to breathe Keep the promise you can live with when nobody sees If the first light fades and the long way starts Hold your ground, keep your kindness, guard your heart And when the world gets heavy at your door Remember what you’re made of, and remember something more You don’t have to know how every chapter ends Just keep moving toward the life you’d choose again [Verse 2] May your table hold a place for old friends May a hard goodbye become a softer bend When the winter lingers on the garden wall Save a seed, say a prayer, let the springtime call [Pre-Chorus] You may lose your balance, you may change your mind That isn’t failure; it’s the way we learn in time [Chorus] So take the road that leaves you room to breathe Keep the promise you can live with when nobody sees If the first light fades and the long way starts Hold your ground, keep your kindness, guard your heart And when the world gets heavy at your door Remember what you’re made of, and remember something more You don’t have to know how every chapter ends Just keep moving toward the life you’d choose again [Bridge] And if your hands are shaking, let them shake Every brave beginning starts that way There’s a quiet strength in starting small You were never meant to carry it all [Final Chorus] Take the road that leaves you room to breathe Keep the promise you can live with when nobody sees If the first light fades and the long way starts Hold your ground, keep your kindness, guard your heart And when the world gets heavy at your door Leave a little mercy waiting on the floor You don’t have to know how every chapter ends Just keep moving toward the life you’d choose again [Outro] May the days be kind, may your courage stay May you find your own true north along the way
