Heart, Outside My Body

[Verse]

Before you, my heart stayed inside where it was safe,

now it's out there walking around in a smaller face.

Every worry I have wears your name and your shoes,

every prayer I don't say out loud, I still choose.

I watch you sleeping and I learn a whole new language,

one made of small breaths and the shape of your patience.

I used to think love was a feeling you could hold,
