about

This song was assembled tag-team style. While we were dating, Cj wrote me a beautiful letter. I arranged the ideas into a poem and set it to a melody. Later, he crafted a guitar accompaniment. Then I added a harmony. And finally we sang it together!

lyrics

Pulled into a whirling dance
A matching hand, a lingering glance
Steps we didn't know we knew
Have lent us wings and snatched our shoes

I would jump, were I not already falling
Leap, were I not already flung
Run, were I not already soaring
Dive, were I not already plunged
Headlong by greater hands than mine
So strong, so unmistakably divine
I must love - oh, and I do
Love has robbed me of choice
But it's given me you

Swept along to places where
Songs of trees thrum in the air
Sunlight paints the world with gold
And beauty's secrets all unfold

I would jump, were I not already falling
Leap, were I not already flung
Run, were I not already soaring
Dive, were I not already plunged
Headlong by greater hands than mine
So strong, so unmistakably divine
I must love - oh, and I do
Love has robbed me of choice
But it's given me you

I am love's willing captive, ardent slave
Welcome surrender, I want no escape
I must love - oh, and I do
Love has robbed me of choice
But it's given me you
