Verse 1
There’s a little white box in a brown paper bag
Sittin’ on the counter like it knows what I have
In my chest, in my head, in the middle of the day
Three little hearts and a what-if on the way
I’ve counted the rooms, I’ve counted the cost
Counted the hours of sleep I’ve already lost
But there’s a quiet little whisper I can’t ignore
That’s knocked on this tired heart before
Pre-Chorus
I’ve said we’re done, I’ve said we’re through
So why am I praying, “God… just not two”?
Chorus
My heart says yes, my house says no
My arms remember what my mind lets go
I’ve got little shoes lined up by the door
And laundry folded on the living room floor
Logic says one line would be best
But love don’t always listen to sense
I’m standin’ here in the in-between
Of one pink line… or two unseen
Verse 2
I know the stretch of a midnight cry
The way your body gives and you don’t ask why
The way your world gets smaller and wide
All at the same time inside
And I know the ache of a “last baby” thought
The way you hold on a little longer than you ought
To the rocking chair and the newborn smell
And the season you swore you handled well
Pre-Chorus 2
I trust the plan, I trust the truth
But I’m still scared of what love might do
Chorus
My heart says yes, my house says no
My hands are full but they still don’t know
If I’d make more room somehow
Or breathe relief when it’s settled now
Logic says one line would be best
But hope still beats inside my chest
I’m standin’ here where fear meets faith
Between a sigh… and a wait
Bridge
Maybe grace comes when it needs to
Maybe strength shows up right on cue
Maybe peace looks different than I planned
Maybe God just holds my hand
And if it’s one, I’ll thank Him still
If it’s two… I know He will
Carry what I cannot do
Like He’s always pulled me through
Final Chorus (soft lift)
My heart says yes, my house says no
But He already knows which way I’ll go
So I’ll breathe in deep and let it be
Whatever’s written over me
One pink line or two in view
I’ll be held the same way through
Standing here, but not alone
In the space between the unknown
