lean into the light

Iron & Wine

We re not happy most of the time
We re not sad too often
We ll keep walking blind in the Sun
While the rain is falling

But we ll laugh by the raging riverside
Laugh just as long as we re side by side
Laugh as we lean into the light

We re no better off than we were
We re no worse for trying
We ll keep walking blind by the rain
And all the church bells chime in

But we ll laugh as the tears roll from our eyes
Laugh holding hands and our knuckles white
Laugh as we lean into the light

Every morning, every goodnight
For very wrong word our mouths do make
We ll say a couple right
Every welcome, every goodbye
For every dark move our bodies make
We ll lean in towards the light
