Lavender Thread

[Intro]
[Verse]
Rain has quit the glass
Shadows softly pass
Cedar and the lace
Tucked in this space
I open up the door
Dust upon the floor
[Pre-Chorus]
Wisteria vines tangle the screen
Shades of purple, shades of green
Lavender sachets tucked away
Waiting for a brighter day
[Chorus]
Things you never said
In the silver thread
Secrets in the fold
Never once were told
Hope begins to rise
Right before my eyes
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, the light is thin
Ooh, let the sun come in
[Verse]
Sunlight on the pane
Gone the scent of rain
Why the hidden heart?
Kept so far apart
In the linen deep
Secrets that you keep
[Chorus]
Things you never said
In the silver thread
Secrets in the fold
Never once were told
Hope begins to rise
Right before my eyes
[Bridge]
The bass hums low against the wood
I think I finally understood
It wasn't loss, it wasn't grief
Just a quiet, deep belief
That love is kept in cotton rows
Where the wild wisteria grows
[Verse]
I smooth the linen with my palm
The house is settled, the air is calm
Grandmother's ghost is in the air
I feel the longing everywhere
A legacy of gentle grace
Written on a pillowcase
[Chorus]
Things you never said
In the silver thread
Secrets in the fold
Never once were told
Hope begins to rise
Right before my eyes
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, the light is thin
Ooh, let the sun come in
[Outro]
