(He uses capo 2 but to match the key on a standard-tuned guitar use capo 1.) D (relative to capo) is 030455 [Intro]   / [Verse 1] You didn’t know your own heart   Or how it might fit I’m in the house that you grew up in where you Gave me it    Where your brother read books While your sister slept in And where we laughed over imitations on the internet [Chorus] How you long for me to find what you’ve been burying   How your hands are too small for what they’ve been carrying   How many words have I wrote down without saying it   If I knew how to hold you I would [Verse 2] You said it makes you feel small That your heart is so big But you just gave a piece for some kind of   Counterfeit    Now the sun has gone down On a road that we chose You know your words are a light you should Lead with those [Chorus] How you long for me to find what you’ve been burying How your hands are too small for what they’ve been carrying   How many words have I wrote down without saying it   If I knew how to hold you I would [Verse 3] Sure deliverance Lives through heartache What a difference your new start made Will you open up your windows I could hold you now     Your deliverance For a namesake What a difference that a day made Will you open all your windows I could hold you now [Chorus] How you long for me to find what you’ve been burying   How your hands are too small for what they’ve been carrying   How many words have I wrote down without saying it   If I knew how to hold you I would [Outro] If I knew how to hold you I would

La chanson évoque une quête d'intimité et de compréhension dans une relation fragile. L'auteur exprime son désir de soutenir une personne qui lutte avec ses émotions et son passé. Il constate que, malgré la force de son cœur, elle se sent vulnérable et a peut-être tenté de cacher certaines de ses souffrances. Les mots non prononcés pèsent lourd, et il souhaite ardemment être celui qui pourrait la réconforter et lui montrer la lumière qu'elle mérite. Le contexte semble se dérouler dans un cadre familier, empreint de souvenirs d’enfance, où des moments légers côtoient des réflexions plus profondes sur la douleur et la guérison. Cela nous rappelle l'importance d'ouvrir notre cœur et de partager nos luttes pour avancer ensemble.
