Lyrics
[verse]
Slow down the morning, let the kettle steam and sigh
Nobody's rushing, there's no reason left to cry
She left her jacket hanging on the kitchen door
Said she'd come back braver than she was before
[verse]
Take all the heavy years and lay them on the shelf
Learn how to forgive the version of yourself
Who stayed too long in rooms that never let you grow
There's a whole horizon out there we don't know
[chorus]
So don't you carry all that fire in your chest
Let the old regrets lie down and rest
Walk on out beneath a sky that's turning gold
Leave the anger for the stories we've been told
[verse]
Somebody's calling from a payphone in the square
Says the world got kinder since we've been out there
Maybe it's the sunlight, maybe it's the time
Maybe we were always gonna be just fine
[chorus]
So don't you carry all that fire in your chest
Let the old regrets lie down and rest
Walk on out beneath a sky that's turning gold
Leave the anger for the stories we've been told
[bridge]
And if the years get heavy, and if the nights get long
Remember we were dreamers, remember we were strong
We'll sing it slow and steady till the daylight breaks
Nothing's ever broken that a little hope can't shake
[chorus]
So don't you carry all that fire in your chest
Let the old regrets lie down and rest
Walk on out beneath a sky that's turning gold
Leave the anger for the stories we've been told
