Maybe
Jessie Veeder Living Room Session
Listen Here:
Maybe we’re supposed to be brave
I don’t know what we are but we’re not made that way
We’re meant to be broken, put together, then saved
Maybe we’re supposed to be brave
Maybe we’re supposed to hold on
when it’s hard to admit it’s gone when it’s gone
In the bright light of morning we’ll be glad we were strong
Maybe we’re supposed to hold on
If love’s not for sinners who is it for?
If luck’s not for hard times who’s keeping score?
I used to know better, I don’t anymore
These mountains we’re climbing lead to the shore
Maybe we’re not supposed to know
every leaf on the tree
every last flake of snow
Because we’re just like the wind, how we come and we go
Maybe we’re not supposed to know
Our hearts can be broken our lives can be saved
In bodies too heavy to just fly away
There’s things that I know and things that I should
Maybe we’re just supposed to be good
Maybe what we have is enough
stop fixing and fighting to own all this stuff
We were meant to be brave, to hold on and give up
For sinners like us, what we have is enough
Favorite!

Jess, “Wild Bill” passed away a month ago and it was a blessing for him. He had Alzheimer disease. I havent cried much but when I played the song the tears came. As if qued by Dad my little American Eskimo Dog began to howl to the harp playing. Away went the tears and out came the smiles. Thanks you so much…. you are such a gift to us all!!
