The Path Least Resisted
by Dan Shaw

I need water in my life
Just as much as I need this fire
That's why I'm raining inside
But my heart's burning with desire

I love me when I'm with you
I feel so fucking grounded
Your humility yet disbelief
Is what leaves me so confounded

Yours is the greatest love story
That I've/this life's ever known
It's a harmony for those hummingbirds
That call the streets their home

You are beautiful in a way that's not harsh nor boastful
But inside lies a presence so deep
That's its voice is actually global
You've touched me in places that I didn't know even existed
You've wiped the mist from my eyes, a thousand times,
To the path that's least resisted

Yours is the greatest love story
That I've/this life's ever known
It's a harmony for those hummingbirds
That call the streets their home

Write me a song tonight babe
It's all I'll ever ask for
You're my soulmate and I'm your
Unbreakable disaster
