Dove song

Go ahead, baby
Tell me what’s broken
I’m feeling bitter but
Still, I’m hopeful
Take it out on me
Tender child
Tend to the hate
I'd neglected a while
Turn coals over
Call "Red Rover"
I'll run to you
though my feet are raw
I promise I'll be here for a while
Guess that I'm still tough after all
Go ahead, try me
My hearts open
I’ve been burned but
I’m still whole and
if you work with me
We’ll go miles
Hunt for the laughter
You’d left behind
Plant new worth
And fill the hole in
I’ll stand with you
As the hard rain falls
Even if we’ll be here for a while
I hope that you’re still soft after all.
