After the Flood
© A. Zoli & M. Hart 2019 (ASCAP)
First comes the flood
Everything all at once
This blissful feeling
Then it all settles down
Broken bits lie all around
What’s left worth saving?
Love, this isn't easy
Spinning in space
We pull and push away
To burn brighter
Now no one will see
The way we used dance in harmony
That song is over
Love, this isn't easy
Try as we may
This ground is giving way
And I’m asking you now
Will you stay?
I’ve been harder to love
I beg don’t give up
There’s still good in us
Will you stay?
Will you stay?
I’m afraid of this place
Nothing ‘round us looks the same
We feel like strangers
Can we ever forgive
Long enough for us just to live
Beside each other?
Love, this isn't easy
Try as we may
This ground is giving way
And I’m asking you now
Will you stay?
I’ve been harder to love
I beg don’t give up
There’s still good in us
Will you stay?
Will you stay?
Late at night I dream
Of who we each could be
I remember when you held me close
I’m not ready for you to let go
Don’t let go

When We Were Honest
