You can rest your head upon my heart,
And we'll curl into a question mark,
And I'll hold you in the arms of Hush,
And love will have to be enough

There's a time laugh and a time to grieve
A time to speak and a time to breathe
Let the silence be the place we meet
In the space between heart beats

Chorus: Hey la hey la hey li
Hush my darling hush a bye
Sparrows fall and sparrow fly,
And we may not ever know why

Some things we can forgive one time,
Then it's out of sight and it's out of mind
Some things we have to forgive twice,
And every day for all our lives

Hey la hey la hey li
Hush my darling hush a bye
Sparrows fall and sparrow fly,
And we may not ever know why

The known world is an open letter,
The unknown world we'll brave together
I'll knit you a redemption sweater,
To wrap your troubles in

You can rest your head upon my heart,
And we'll curl into a question mark,
And I'll hold you in the arms of hush
And love will have to be enough

Hey la hey la hey li
Hush my darling hush a bye
Sparrows fall and sparrow fly,
And we may not ever know why
