Blush by Emily Merrell Lyrics
Dancing feet don’t mind the dust
Open ears don’t hear the rush
Eyes the see the future don’t notice clouds today
And hands that long for other hands somehow, still, can pray
Empty cheeks can learn to blush
Empty hearts can grow to trust
Empty lungs can fill again with sweet and gentle breath
And empty dreams that won’t come true find a place to rest
Blinded by the waves of grey and dreams you can’t keep away
You’re flying on your broken wings
But out of ashes always grow the sweetest blushing springs
How strange to find two souls can speak—
One alone is not complete?
How two hearts can be so close and still so far away
But somehow tomorrow turns into today
Open ears don’t hear the rush
Eyes the see the future don’t notice clouds today
And hands that long for other hands somehow, still, can pray
Empty cheeks can learn to blush
Empty hearts can grow to trust
Empty lungs can fill again with sweet and gentle breath
And empty dreams that won’t come true find a place to rest
Blinded by the waves of grey and dreams you can’t keep away
You’re flying on your broken wings
But out of ashes always grow the sweetest blushing springs
How strange to find two souls can speak—
One alone is not complete?
How two hearts can be so close and still so far away
But somehow tomorrow turns into today
