This song is about the moment between sleeping and waking up and dealing with a recent bereavement in that moment. It resolves into an acceptance of the pain of loss and an appreciation of all that the person who has gone has left behind.

Maybe your face is just beyond the morning
Maybe your voice is just a word away
Maybe this light in my mind
Is the sight of your smile
On the shores of the day.

Maybe your hands are holding me together
Maybe your whisper keeps my tears at bay
Maybe you will always be my Northern Star
Keep me right
Every night
Everyday.

You were the first wish on every candle
You were the next thing I wanted to say
You were the last light as we turned towards home
And I miss you every single day.

Maybe the ripple spreads across the water
Maybe your breath is still upon my face
Maybe my sorrows and my dreams
And the spaces in between
Are filled with your grace.

You were the first wish on every candle
You were the next thing I wanted to say
You were the last light as we turned towards home
And I love you every single day.
