Heart of One (For Newtown) by Jaime Garamella published on 2012-12-19T06:11:47Z I wrote this for everyone touched by the tragedy in Newtown, CT. I'd never been moved to tears for people I'd never met until this happened. My thoughts are with you all. Sorry for the pitchy vocals! It was one take live before I had to leave for work.

I’d give anything to trade here for beyond If it meant she’d see One more Christmas tree One more afternoon of play If it meant she’d know What it’s like to hold Your own heart in your hands some day I have looked into the blackest pits of Hell I have seen the darkness swallow up the light I have never felt so broken and alone And God, although I’ve asked, You still won’t tell me why I have shivered through the coldest winter rains And the only light I see from what is done Is from twenty-six new stars Shining up above And my heart is at the heart of one Baby, dry your eyes You know I’m here to talk to any time you like It will be a while Before we see each other in a better life And I’ll think of you Till my days are through And all the times you made me smile Please forgive me when I lose it now and then It just hurts to say goodbye I have looked into the blackest pits of Hell I have seen the darkness swallow up the light I have never felt so broken and alone And God, although I’ve asked, You still won’t tell me why I have shivered through the coldest winter rains And the only light I see from what is done Is from twenty-six new stars Shining up above And my heart is at the heart of one And my heart is at the heart of one (c) 2012 Jaime Garamella / Dogburn Music (ASCAP) Genre Acoustic
