Talking About The Weather Lyrics

I'm waiting on a call
From a friend from out of state
That knows my name and
Even though it’s been a while
It feels the same
Just talking 'bout the weather
And how even though I'm in the midwest
The south is getting way more snow than us
Daydreaming in the car
About the day when I will have more kids than him
While the subject of the discussion is how
I have miles of wounds and baggage
He still thinks I’m worth the effort
The kindness in his voice reminds me
Of the loving God we both still serve

The conversation's ended
And I'm sitting in the dark of a well-lit room
I've got some good perspective
And I think I like the view

I tried to act alone
Or at least enter unnoticed
I shuffled in
And quickly walked away
I heard your footsteps
Sound across the floorboards
Leaving your fiancé on the couch
To enter my room and smile
You leaned against the wall
And you asked how I was doing
I said, "Bad," and still you chose to listen as I
Unpacked all my latest sorrows
Doubted if I'd face tomorrow
And when I stopped, you chose to come sit down
When I asked if you could pray

And I know that you've never had the answers
But you're there and I think that's all I could need

The conversation’s ended
And I’m sitting in the dark of a well-lit room
I've got some good perspective

’Cause I know that you've never had the answers
But you're there and I think that's all I could need

The conversation’s ended
And I'm sitting in the dark of a well-lit room
I've got some good perspective
And I think I like the view
