Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
There must have been a reason
For every gift you carry
The kindness in your patience
The way you're never wary
[verse]
Somebody took the extra hour
To paint the light behind your eyes
Somebody built you strong as steel
And soft enough to comfort cries
[chorus]
Somebody must have lingered longer
Shaping every part of you
Taking extra care and wonder
Making sure that it was true
There's no mistake in how you're made
No accident in what you are
Somebody took their time that day
And made you like a guiding star
[verse]
I watch you move through darkened rooms
And somehow bring the morning in
You carry hope like it's a flame
That never learned to dim
[chorus]
Somebody must have lingered longer
Shaping every part of you
Taking extra care and wonder
Making sure that it was true
There's no mistake in how you're made
No accident in what you are
Somebody took their time that day
And made you like a guiding star
[bridge]
When the world feels heavy
And nobody understands
Remember you were crafted
By the most patient hands
[chorus]
Somebody must have lingered longer
Shaping every part of you
Taking extra care and wonder
Making sure that it was true
There's no mistake in how you're made
No accident in what you are
Somebody took their time that day
And made you like a guiding star
