Tender Offerings: Embracing Life's Yearning and Golden Moments
Lyrics
Perhaps I'm bound to be restless

Always yearning never satisfied

Was I happy in those moments?

Or have I made it seem that way

Was I back there tomorrow

Could feel as lacking as today

But you in your golden hour

And you and your sweetest song

This foolish hope we can be found

Could it land me on the ground?
Questioning whether this hope could lead to disappointment.
Still, I like my world boundless

It's the hunger in my bones
