Be Brave
[Verse 1]
In a basement of an empty house
I slept on the floor like a vagrant
I braved a Minnesota winter night
And drove to a movie feeling lonely
And as I thawed my heart out by the light
Of the silver screen
I was unaware that you were there In the dark
A silhouette was climbing up the stairs
And what I thought in the parking lot
Was like I just wanna know your name
I drove away with not much to say
But in my hand I held the paper bird
And written on it were the words
“Be brave”
[Verse 2]
Wildflower knew I wasn’t well
But on the kitchen floor I got better again
I grabbed my keys and drove toward a star
And there I was understood for the first time in my life
Cause that’s when I was introduced to true serendipity
I knew it when you showed up again
In the snow yeah I was always told
Your heart is where you’re home
And what I thought in the coffee shop
Was like the last eight hours was a dream
I drove away with not much to say
But in my hand I held a paper bird
And written on it were the words
[Bridge]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
“OK, I’ll be brave”
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
“OK, I’ll be brave”
[Verse 3]
And in my mind
After all this time I think
“Ain’t life beautiful and strange ?”
I’m blown away
With no words to say
Cause I’ll forever be amazed
How I learned the meaning of the phrase
“Be brave”
“Be brave”
“Be brave”
“Be brave”
