Good for the Heart

Just a single take song I wrote for my wife called “good for the heart”

Lyrics

You just take something natural
Melt it down to its clearest parts
Layer it on me when I’m not sure
What I’m here for and
Make something good for the heart

Show me things I never knew I needed
Find the truth that’s hiding in the dark
Strengthen my skin and bones and
Most importantly, my soul
And make something good for the heart

Making our house into a home
Making a family of our own
I never thought when we met in that park
We’d be making something so good for the heart

Barely recognize the man I used to be
Stronger and wiser now too
I guess all it takes is some melting
And some spooning
Until I become something new

I guess you extended my shelf life
Bottled me up into a jar
Without the clarifying
You’ve done to my spirit baby
Don’t know if would’ve come this far

Making our house into a home
Making a family of our own
I never thought when we met in that park
We’d be making something so good for the heart
