You can rest your head upon my heart
And we'll curl into a question mark
And I'll hold you in the arms of hush
And love will have to be enough
There's a time to laugh and a time to grieve
There's a time to speak and a time to breathe
Let the silence be the place we meet
The space between our heart beats
Hey, la, hey, la, hey, li
Hush, my darlin', hush a bye
Sparrows fall and sparrow fly
And we may not ever know why
Some things we can forgive one time
Then it's out of sight and it's out of mind
Some things we have to forgive twice
And every day for all our lives
Hey, la, hey, la, hey, li
Hush, my darlin', hush a bye
Sparrows fall and sparrow fly
And we may not ever know why
The known world is an open letter
The unknown world we'll brave together
I'll knit you a redemption sweater
To wrap your troubles in
You can rest your head upon my heart
And we'll curl into a question mark
And I'll hold you in the arms of hush
And love will have to be enough
Hey, la, hey, la, hey, li
Hush, my darlin', hush a bye
Sparrows fall and sparrow fly
And we may not ever know why
Hey, la, hey, la, hey, li
Hush, my darlin', hush a bye
Sparrows fall and sparrow fly
And we may not ever know why
We may not ever know why
Hush, my darlin', hush a bye
