How To Dress Well, Salt Song:
I want to learn to care for my soul
Like I wish you’d cared for my soul
To feel my heart is my home
Something to call my own
I want to fill my house with light
With flowers and things that grow
And feel at home before I go
But if happiness were safe
Wouldn’t be so hard to find my own
Everything I’ve heard them say
This danger justifies my hope
If I saw myself inside a dream
Would I recognize me as my own?
Now every song that I sing
Just feel at home before I go
True love’s never hurtful, this you know!
And time alone won’t ever heal your pain, you know
Boy, if time will never set you free
Then they won’t see unless you choose to show
And who can you show if you’re all alone?
And all your love so ready to be seen and received!
You just don’t believe you don’t deserve to grow
Who you’ve been won’t guarantee just who you could be
What’s the future hold? Someday we’ll know
But if happiness were safe
I wonder if I’d sing this song
An exchange of trust and grace
To feel at home before I go
Last night I dreamed that I was older
And the room was filled with flowers
And I opened up the door
And found myself there as a toddler
I said, “Hey Tom you’re ok, in here you can feel no pain
Yeah, we have the same name, you’re just a little bit smaller!”
The boy laughed and he said to me
“This is the feeling of real human dignity”
When I woke up I felt my face expecting tears
And if happiness were safe
I wonder if I’d sing this song
But as I touched my face
Felt so alive and felt so strong
That little me in my dream
What he meant, not sure I’ll ever know
But with everything that I sing
Until happiness is safe
This is how I sing his song
Every single day
Sing for a heart to call my own
And every night when I sleep
Danger, I won’t wake no more
And leave this earthly scene
Before I find a heart to call my own
Before I find a heart to call my own
Before I find a heart to call my own
Before I find a heart to call my own
Before I find a heart to call my own
