Lyrics
When I see my brother crash
as he always seems to do
I feel measured in my sadness
listening to him boil in his stew,
we do our best to comprehend
the highs and lows that'll surely do him in
I let my heart feel what I can
try to love it all,
well, I grew up with a prize,
she made everything alright
though I was terrified
when the lights went out at night,
well she gave me a light
one I've shared with others many times
I let my heart feel what I find,
try to love it all
yeah, I've known trouble in this life,
felt the emptiness inside,
then I found the light of love,
and I've learned how to rise above
in all these ways I'm alive
my heart has hurt
but it's also soared in flight
I let my heart feel what I find
try to love it all
and I've fallen down
with my face flat in the ground
"is this all really worth it?"
I've pondered out loud,
"can I love it all?"
and I've felt my babies cry
and I've heard 'em laugh
at the strangest times
I let my heart feel what I find
gotta love it all
gotta love it all
love it all
