Oh, Luck!

This new little ballad was written while reflecting on the passing of time, and how it's never coming back. On the things I would have liked to do, but which are now impossible. Originally written in 2017, as I was then heading towards my 20th birthday. -David

How to Feel

"Let Us Love You Now” is a gentle song about honoring the people who cared for us, and recognizing the moment when they need help in return. It speaks to the love, resilience, and quiet strength of caregivers — and to the courage it takes for someone who has always given to finally let themselves receive.

This song is meant to be a comfort.
A reminder that being cared for is not weakness.
And that love can flow both ways.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Let us love you now,
For the years you spent loving us.
All those nights you stayed awake,
Every quiet sacrifice
No one ever saw.

You carried so much for so long,
Held the weight of others
With a strength that never quit,
With a heart that kept on giving.

[Chorus]
So let us love you now,
Let you love you now.
It’s alright to rest a while,
It’s alright to lean back down.
You don’t have to be the strong one
Every moment, every hour.
You held us then 
let us love you now.

[Verse 2]
You may still want to do,
Still want to help,
Still want to give 
’cause that’s who you are.

But you don’t have to anymore,
Not the way you used to do.
Not out of habit or worry,
Not out of fear of being a burden.

This is your season to receive,
To be held,
To be honored.
So let us carry you now,
The way you once carried us.

[Chorus]
Let us love you now,
Let you love you now.
Let our strength be yours for once,
Let your tired heart settle down.
You don’t have to hold it all
Like you always figured out how.
You held us then 
let us love you now.

[Bridge]
Let yourself soften,
Let yourself breathe,
Let yourself feel worthy
Of comfort and rest.
Because you are…
you always have been.

[Final Chorus]
So let us love you now,
Let you love you now.
Let the weight fall off your shoulders,
Let the hurting fade somehow.
You can still give,
Still serve,
Still bless 
but now on your own terms,
In the ways that feel true
to you.

[Outro]
Yeah…
You held us then...
let us love you now.
