Brown sugar sky
Melting over me
Warm like a memory
I forgot I need
The evening comes slowly
With honey in the air
I sit by the window
And let down my hair
The world feels softer
Than it did before
Like something gentle
Just opened the door
I’ve been carrying questions
Too heavy to name
Trying to be strong
Through every small pain
But tonight feels different
The clouds drift by
Sweet as forgiveness
In a brown sugar sky
I don’t have to run
I don’t have to hide
There’s a little bit of peace
On the other side
Brown sugar sky
Hold me for a minute
Let my tired heart
Find the sweetness in it
Brown sugar sky
Pour your light on me
I’ve been needing something
Soft enough to believe
Brown sugar sky
Don’t fade too soon
I feel a little warmer
Under you
There’s a song in the kitchen
From an old radio
It plays like a secret
Only lonely people know
A cup on the table
A chair pulled aside
A quiet kind of comfort
I don’t have to fight
I used to think healing
Would arrive like a storm
But maybe it comes
In something small and warm
Like cinnamon mornings
Like sleepy July
Like breathing again
Under brown sugar sky
I don’t have to run
I don’t have to hide
There’s a little bit of peace
On the other side
Brown sugar sky
Hold me for a minute
Let my tired heart
Find the sweetness in it
Brown sugar sky
Pour your light on me
I’ve been needing something
Soft enough to believe
Brown sugar sky
Don’t fade too soon
I feel a little warmer
Under you
Maybe I was waiting
For someone to explain
Why the sweetest things
Can come after pain
Maybe I was learning
How to be still
How to let the quiet
Do what time never will
Brown sugar sky
Hold me for a minute
Let my tired heart
Find the sweetness in it
Brown sugar sky
Pour your light on me
I’ve been needing something
Soft enough to believe
Brown sugar sky
Don’t fade too soon
I feel a little warmer
Under you
Brown sugar sky
Melting over me
Warm like a memory
I forgot I need
