Tiny heart, big fear

Verse 1

I found out and I froze

Couldn’t tell if it was joy or ghosts

Hands shaking, staring at those lines

Feeling hope and fear at the same time

Everybody says, “Just breathe, just trust”

But they don’t know what grief does to us

When you’ve loved and lost, the whole world shifts

Even blessings come wrapped up in risks

Pre-Chorus

So I whisper to the dark

Please be kind to this little heart

Chorus

Tiny heart, big fear

Please stay with me, please stay here

I’m trying not to drown in yesterday

Trying to let tomorrow find its way

I wanna love you loud, but I’m scared to break

Scared that joy is something I can’t take

Tiny heart, can you hear me through my tears?

I’ve got so much love… and so much fear

Verse 2

I check every feeling, every pain

Every little change inside my veins

Am I okay? Are you alright?

I ask those questions every night

I wanna dream of names and nursery lights

But grief still visits me sometimes

Still sits beside me in the dark

Still trembles with my beating heart

Pre-Chorus

And I know this love is real

Even if I’m scared to feel

Chorus

Tiny heart, big fear

Please stay with me, please stay here

I’m trying not to drown in yesterday

Trying to let tomorrow find its way

I wanna love you loud, but I’m scared to break

Scared that joy is something I can’t take

Tiny heart, can you hear me through my tears?

I’ve got so much love… and so much fear

Bridge

But maybe brave ain’t being calm

Maybe brave is trembling on

Maybe faith is holding on

Even when the night feels long

So if you’re listening deep inside

Know your mama’s gonna try

To love you through the fear and ache

Through every prayer and every shake

Final Chorus

Tiny heart, big fear

Still I need you, still I’m here

I’ll love you softly, day by day

Until the light outgrows the pain

And if my voice is weak, it’s true

It’s only ‘cause I already love you

Tiny heart, can you hear me through my tears?

I’ve got so much hope… and so much fear
