about

For Matt Husband, with all the love

lyrics

I guess you were pretty smitten, but I was pretty dumb
You tried to hold my hand, I ran away
I didn’t think that love could be for anyone as weird as me
So I watched you date girls scared less easily
But that was 18, that was 18

And now it’s terrifying how much I like you
And how my heart towards one mortal could turn
But when I close my eyes, I know that God is smiling
Because he loves to give us things we haven’t earned

I moved to New York City, you called me now and then
And I was always glad to hear your voice
But another voice was calling me, one that’d been there all along
And I didn’t think that you would understand
But that was 22, that was 22

And it was 23 or 25, every break and every time
Like that snowy, mountain coastal drive
It was to the zoo or to the park, we watched the swifts, we played guitar
It never felt like dates back then
But now we have all these sweet “remember when?”s

Now I’m back here in Portland, you’re teaching in a foreign land
Your heart has changed so much and so has mine
I know God loves surprises so I don’t ask what our future holds
But we are his, I am yours, and your are mine
Now that we’re 29, yes we’re 29

And yes it’s terrifying how much I love you
And how my heart towards one mortal could turn
But when I close my eyes, I know that God is smiling
Because he loves to give us things we haven’t earned
Yes the things for which our hearts do cry and burn
Things too good to be ever, ever, ever, ever earned
