One Note Stays

[Verse 1]
You tune the dial for every room
Catch every color passing through
A stranger’s laugh, a neighbor’s ache
You learn the songs that others make

[Pre-Chorus]
But under all those borrowed waves
Your own small signal waits

[Chorus]
Every station sings to me
Every frequency I can see
But when they all come pouring through
I lose the sound that sounds like you
Turn the dial, let one note stay
Find your own song in the fray

[Verse 2]
You know the tenor of their doubt
The little breaks they leave it out
You hold their stories in your hands
And miss the beat your heart commands

[Pre-Chorus]
The room is full, the air is loud
Your quiet voice is still allowed

[Chorus]
Every station sings to me
Every frequency I can see
But when they all come pouring through
I lose the sound that sounds like you
Turn the dial, let one note stay
Find your own song in the fray

[Bridge]
No need to shut the whole world down
No need to turn your kindness out
Just let the dial fall into place
And give your own voice room and space

[Final Chorus]
Every station sings to me
Every frequency I can see
Now through the rush, one note comes through
A clear small sound that’s mine and true
Turn the dial, let one note stay
I hear my own song in the fray

[Outro]
One note stays
One note stays
