lyrics

Love is saying sorry first
Telling the worst thought, “Uh-uh, no sir.”
Life’s a game of chicken, love is first swerve
Love is saying sorry first

Love is sticking to your guns
Holding the mirror ‘til the vision comes
If life’s a game of chicken, love will never run
'Cause love is sticking to your guns

It’s kinda like the pedals on my child’s bicycle
The pedals lock beneath your feet, you try to make them go
Push pedal against pedal, and then it starts to flow
Into a forward cycle: confess, repent, grow

Love is seeing ours not mine
Fighting the world, not our own pride
Life’s no game of chicken, that bird just doesn’t fly
Love is seeing ours not mine

It’s kinda like the pedals on my child’s bicycle
The pedals lock beneath your feet, you try to make them go
To move the bike along, one of those pedals must come low
And start the forward cycle: confess, repent, grow..
