Reach for You

Tell me, have you ever tried
really reaching cross the great divide?
We may be worlds apart somehow,
so take my hand and cross it now.

We built walls because we feared,
but doors are why we're standing here.
And if you're wondering what I'm reaching for —
it's the quiet on the far side of this war.

So I'll reach for you,
I'll reach for you,
the whole world's splitting but I'll reach for you —
the very thing it swore we'd never do.

No, we don't see it the same,
and every tender thing's still learning how to stay.
But somewhere past the noise and the doubt,
there's a we worth figuring out.

So I'll reach for you,
I'll reach for you,
the whole world's splitting but I'll reach for you —
the only two halves of something true.

So lay it down, all the anger and the blame,
and I'll meet you where the quiet learns your name.
We don't have to end up perfect to be true —
we just have to want to see it through.

So I'll reach for you,
I'll reach for you,
the whole world's splitting but I'll reach for you —
something stronger than the two we knew.

And it's bigger than you, bigger than me,
bigger than the two of us ever could see —
a hundred million hearts still reaching, too,
so I'll reach for you, I'll reach for you...
something stronger than the two we knew.
