The Map We Have Drawn Out

about

This is a song I wrote for my friends Chad and Christina who just got married. It's about hitting life together with a sense of awe and adventure and going on that journey together, even through winding and unseen paths. The map they have drawn out together, though, will get them to where they need to be.

They are two of the most inspiring people I have met with their love and zest for life and seeing the world. I'm so happy that they have found each other to ride this crazy wave of life together.

I love them so much and here is my tribute to them.

lyrics

THE MAP WE HAVE DRAWN OUT

I’m feelin’ somethin’
A fire at our core

And we are wanting a little something more

And alone we may have our
Feet stuck to the floor

But If we go together they won’t be anymore

Close your eyes
And throw your finger down

That’s where we’re goin now

CHORUS:

Take my hand
We’re leaving
Down this winding road

And I can’t
Believe it
It’s finally time to go

And if all
We have is
The map we have drawn out

Then it’s all
We’re needing
To make our way around

The hills are callin’
For us to come along

They cut the clouds above
And we can’t see the top

So we’re relyin’
On what we know is there

So let’s head on up for we
Can make it anywhere

Close your eyes
And throw your finger down

That’s where we’re goin now

CHORUS:

Take my hand
We’re leaving
Down this winding road

And I can’t
Believe it
It’s finally time to go

And if all
We have is
The map we have drawn out

Then it’s all
We’re needing
To make our way around
