Esperanza Spalding - Ways Together (shoulders) lyrics
[Esperanza Spalding - Ways Together shoulders lyrics]
I watched queen mama carry
A castle and our king
So I thought it ordinary
To fly with just one wing
Now, you run your hand along my shoulder
And all I feel is lightness
Buoying my bones, feel myself grow
Lighter in our ways together
Lighter in our ways together
In all my days of carrying
On, I never liked, light, things
I thought the more I carried
The more that life would bring
And it made my life so heavy
I couldn't give a thing
Like, love, not really
New to leaning back, and falling open
You reached right out to let me
Know that you must hold up the heavy load
With me
Carrying the world between us
Marrying the world between us
Deepening in lightness
Marrying the world between us
(Lighter in our ways together)
Carrying the world between us
(Lighter in our ways together)
A castle and our king
So I thought it ordinary
To fly with just one wing
Now, you run your hand along my shoulder
And all I feel is lightness
Buoying my bones, feel myself grow
Lighter in our ways together
Lighter in our ways together
In all my days of carrying
On, I never liked, light, things
I thought the more I carried
The more that life would bring
And it made my life so heavy
I couldn't give a thing
Like, love, not really
New to leaning back, and falling open
You reached right out to let me
Know that you must hold up the heavy load
With me
Carrying the world between us
Marrying the world between us
Deepening in lightness
Marrying the world between us
(Lighter in our ways together)
Carrying the world between us
(Lighter in our ways together)
