about

An acapella song for the love of all the little things, and how we stumble through the bright-dark days, loving each other anyway.

lyrics

LYRICS:

There's an uneven tile on the floor under my desk
Perfectly set for to rock my heel against
And I
Will take the music where I find it

And there's a stranger here saying something to me
I am distracted by the colour rising in her cheek
And I
Will take the beauty where I find it

And the way you fight for life
On a single, soul-sick day
Is more beautiful to me
Than the whole Love-and-Light Brigade

And I like the broken bits the best
So don't tell me you're not good enough
Don't tell me it's too dark in here
Without the darkness
I don't know love

There's an uneven tile on the floor under my desk
Perfectly set for to rock my heel against
And I
Will take the music where I find it

And there's a stranger here saying something to me
I am distracted by the colour rising in her cheek
And I
Will take the beauty where I find it
And I
Will take the beauty where I find it
