Thursday Light

The coffee’s steaming in the California light The Seoul sun is a

memory, tucked away from sight

No more racing against the clock

or the heavy expectations

Just the quiet hum of the house,

and my own meditations

I’m back within these walls,

but the air feels different now

I’ve traded the survival

for a silent, sacred vow

To keep the hearth burning and the sky wide and blue

Leaving behind the ghosts of what I thought I knew (ahhhh)

My muscles remember the resistance of the lake

The way the water gives

for every choice I make

I don’t need to rush to find where I belong

I’m just finding the rhythm to my own new song (ooh)

Reach for the peace that I finally found Catch the moment before

it hits the ground

Pull through the weight of the years left behind

Recover the stillness, the rest for my mind

It’s a Thursday morning,

but it’s Tuesday peace A hearth and sky energy,

a sweet release One stroke at a time,

I’m moving toward the light Everything is calm,

everything is right (ooh-ooh) I used to count the miles and I

used to count the tears But I’m building a fortress out of

these quiet years

No stress in the hallway,

no shadows in the room Just the scent of the morning and

the flowers in bloom

If the missing comes back like a wave on the shore I

just pick up the paddle and I head out for more Of

this version of me—the one who is whole

With a fire in the center and a sky in her soul

(hummmm) My muscles remember the resistance of the lake

The way the water gives

for every choice I make

I don’t need to rush to find where I belong

I’m just finding the rhythm to my own new song (ooh) Reach

for the peace that I finally found

Catch the moment before it hits the ground

Pull through the weight of the years left behind

Recover the stillness, the rest for my mind It’s a Thursday morning,

but it’s Tuesday peace A hearth and sky energy,

a sweet release One stroke at a time,

I’m moving toward the light

Everything is calm,

everything is right (ohhh)

Reach... the extension of my grace.

Catch... the beauty of this space.

Pull... the strength from deep within.

Recover... where the new days begin.

Reach... the extension of my grace.

Catch... the beauty of this space.

Pull... the strength from deep within.

Recover... where the new days begin. (ooh-ooh)

Reach for the peace that I finally found

Catch the moment before it hits the ground

Pull through the weight of the years left behind Recover the stillness,

the rest for my mind It’s a Thursday morning,

but it’s Tuesday peace A hearth and sky energy,

a sweet release One stroke at a time,

I’m moving toward the light

Everything is calm, everything is right (ahhhh)

One stroke at a time.

Hearth and sky. No stress,

singer. Just the stillness. (ahhhh)
