Story behind the song

This song was written after a very dear friend showed up for me on a very hard, soul-wrenching day.

Lyrics

Your love pours slowly�
Like molasses:
Rich and dark,
Thick and bittersweet
Over the notes
Inscribed on my back.
You begin to blow...
I'm wandering alone,
But found in the tone.
You hold the note,
And I am captured
For a sacred moment in
The sadness, the fear,
The anger, the tears
Of blood pouring
Down my legs
As I give birth to
Myself.
You guide my hand
As I write the score.
You push for more.
You hold the note
Like you hold me:
Rocking, rocking, rocking
Like a metronome,
Our hearts beat
Together like never before.
Coins fall from my eyes
You catch them,
You cash them
In for a darker hour.
You hold the note
Inscribed on my back
Inscribed in my heart.
Your horn sings the refrain
You wash away the pain,
You conduct the rain
To pour
Like molasses:
Thick and dark,
Rich and bittersweet.
You hold the note.
You hold the note
And hold me safe
Within it.
