Unclenched Dawn

The ceiling was a heavy grey for hours

Watching shadows stretch across the floor

But the birds are singing in the garden flowers

And the dark can't hold us anymore

Oh I let my shoulders drop and finally breathe

Walking straight into the golden glow

There is grace in every shadow that we leave

And a quiet hope is starting to grow

(ooh, yeah)

My hands were clenched so tight against the winter

Afraid of what tomorrow had in store

But the sunlight breaks through like a golden splinter

And I don't have to carry it anymore

And it’s a new day,

a clean slate

No more looking back,

no more weight Oh

I let my shoulders drop and finally breathe

Walking straight into the golden glow

There is grace in every shadow that we

leave

And a quiet hope is starting to grow (yeah,

yeah,

walking in the light!)

Into the light... (hummm)
