Sweeping Gusts

[Verse 1]
Empty field
Ankles in the tall grass
Shirt sleeves shake
You laugh and lean back
That soft rush
Pulling at your backpack
We just breathe
We just let it pass
[Chorus]
Sweeping gusts
Blow right through me
Take my weight
Leave me loosely
If this is all
I ever know
Let the wind
Be beautiful
Let the wind
Be beautiful
[Verse 2]
Hazy sky
Sun in a pale frame
Your hair moves
You almost say my name
Quiet eyes
Trying not to explain
How peace comes
Right after the rain
[Chorus]
Sweeping gusts
Blow right through me
Take my weight
Leave me loosely
If this is all
I ever know
Let the wind
Be beautiful
Let the wind
Be beautiful
[Bridge]
I used to chase
Every heavy thought
Now I just stand here
And let them get caught
In the turning air
Till they’re out of my hands
Till I’m light enough
To understand
[Chorus]
Sweeping gusts
Blow right through me
Take my weight
Leave me loosely
If this is all
I ever know
Let the wind
Be beautiful
Let the wind
Be beautiful
