One Small Brave Thing

[Verse 1]
The calendar flips while the kettle still sings
New names for the roads, new codes for the keys
You say, “Does it scare you, how fast it all goes?”
I say, “Keep your hand here; we’ll learn as we go”

[Pre-Chorus]
Let the headlines race past the window
We can choose what we carry inside
Every map gets redrawn in the morning
There’s still room for a good turn to arrive

[Chorus]
When the whole world changes shape overnight
I’ll keep a little hope in the way that I look at you
We can meet every strange new sunrise
One small brave thing, then another one too
If the ground moves under our feet
We’ll find the next place to stand
The future can hurry; it can’t take away
The good we make with our hands

[Verse 2]
Your old train card’s bent by the corner
The station has a screen where the clock used to be
You laugh when it calls our stop something different
Then save me the seat by the side of the street

[Pre-Chorus]
Let the headlines race past the window
We can choose what we carry inside
Every map gets redrawn in the morning
There’s still room for a good turn to arrive

[Chorus]
When the whole world changes shape overnight
I’ll keep a little hope in the way that I look at you
We can meet every strange new sunrise
One small brave thing, then another one too
If the ground moves under our feet
We’ll find the next place to stand
The future can hurry; it can’t take away
The good we make with our hands

[Bridge]
We don’t need to know every answer
We don’t need the old signs to stay
Just your voice saying, “I’m here beside you”
And a reason to try one more day

[Final Chorus]
When the whole world changes shape overnight
I’ll keep a little hope in the way that I look at you
We can meet every strange new sunrise
One small brave thing, then another one too
If the ground moves under our feet
We’ll find the next place to stand
The future can hurry; it can’t take away
The good we make with our hands

[Outro]
One small brave thing
Then another one too
