I'm literally crying. Truly beautiful.

[@Amydixon08]

I will always keep coming back to this. Pure perfection.

[@breakingseas]

Oh my gosh, this is an absolutely stunning performance. Thank you so much for sharing this!

[@ZachHopeful]

This song is better than therapy. I'm pretty sure it's the only thing that's kept me going the last five years or so.

LEAD
I wake up every morning,
Surprised to see the sun.
Surprised the world and I
Continue on our frantic run.
Days become weeks.
Weeks become months.
Months become way back when.
LEAD, BACKUP, AUDIENCE
The earth keeps turning.
The light keeps shifting.
And I keep holding on.
LEAD
I’m growing up again.
LEAD, BACKUP, AUDIENCE
The earth keeps turning.
The light keeps shifting.
And I keep holding on.
LEAD
I wish the world would notice,
And pause a breath for you.
I wish that I could tell the world to stop.
I want to.
Days become weeks.
Weeks become months.
Months become way back when.
Way back when.
LEAD, BACKUP, AUDIENCE
The earth keeps turning.
The light keeps shifting.
And I keep holding on.
LEAD
I’m growing up again.
LEAD, BACKUP, AUDIENCE
The earth keeps turning.
The light keeps shifting.
And I keep holding on.
LEAD
I’m growing up again.
LEAD, BACKUP, AUDIENCE
The earth keeps turning.
The light keeps shifting.
And I keep holding on.
LEAD
I'm growing up again.
LEAD, BACKUP, AUDIENCE
The earth keeps turning.
The light keeps shifting.
And I keep holding on.
The earth keeps turning.
The light keeps shifting.
And I keep holding on.
The earth keeps turning.
The light keeps shifting.
And I keep holding on.
The earth keeps turning.
The light keeps shifting.
And I keep holding on.
The earth keeps turning.
The light keeps shifting.
And I keep holding on.
LEAD
Oh, oh, oh.
LEAD, BACKUP
Oh.

Woah came across this cause of LMK and it´s sooo beautiful! I love how she starts smiling throughout the song, she really feels the music and the meaning!

[@mjktheatre]

Thank you for this and Not a Love Story, love LMK and your music and I was so disappointed I didn't get out to see this when it happened. So glad to see it was recorded, I had given up hope :-)

[@Meganithmaizel]
