He's got the rosary beads that his mama gave him wrapped around his rear view mirror
cnd sometimes when he's drivin' in the suns sinkin' light he can still see her
and the way that she would light up when his daddy would turn the radio on
he'd spin her round and round the yard
and they'd dance underneath the autumn moon

There's a road that's laid out in front of all of us we cannot see
So many winding paths, so many different ways a heart can bleed
cnd the choices that we make can change the very essence of our soul
Sometimes a boy has to become a man before he's fully grown

Chorus::
Sometimes the light hits your face
I can see every trace
The tracks of all your tears

I can touch all your scars
But I can't heal your heart
I know there's so much in this world you fear

There's a peaceful easy calm that comes when the morning breaks
If you can weather all of the storms the night throws your way
The violence of a past that leaves you shaking in your bed
and the dreams of the ones you left behind spinning through your head

Chorus::

Chorus::
Sometimes the light hits your face
I can see every trace
The tracks of all your tears
I can touch all your scars
But I can't heal your heart
cll I can do is promise I'll always be here
