Jennifer Lynn Smith: Listen
Come Away
(Jennifer Lynn Smith- vocals, acoustic guitar; Josh Hungate- mandolin; Dylan Reiter- electric bass; Alex Smith- hand drums, percussion)
It’s been a long time since I’ve talked about my past
And opened up closed doors to thank God for where I’m at
It’s been a long time, I’ve almost forgot that I was hurt
I want to tell you now I want to tell you now
There was a time I thought I could never stand on my own
And it wasn’t my fault if I followed someone else’s wrong
There was a time that I suppressed the whisper in my head
That said “be strong, stand up, and move on”
Come away to a place where I’ll take away your emptiness
And show you dreams you never thought you’d dream
Take my hand, don’t close your eyes
Leave behind the doubt, the lies
And we’ll only look back just to see how far you’ve come
Sometimes I wonder if…I should apologize to myself
What good is a voice if you don’t speak, and legs if you don’t move?
