There's a silver thread running through her indigo eyes
Through the songs she would sing under bluebird skies
Through the wind that keeps dancing through those two poplar trees
Through the shine in the ocean and the prayers on our knees
There's a silver thread woven through our laughter and tears
Through panic attacks and our very worst fears
Through death's hand that takes us and walks us back home
Through the hope of the stars and hearts heavy as stone
Nothing could break it or sever the ties
Of the silver thread running through her indigo eyes
It's stronger than anything you've ever known
And I'll hold on forever 'til it takes me back home
There's a silver thread running through everything
From the dust on your bicycle and silence that stings
Through the snow on the mountain and the Wilson Lake breeze
Through the warmth from the fire and the October leaves
There's a silver thread running through your memory
And it brings deeper color to everything
And I'm here in the city, you're out there somewhere
And I love you forever, forever, I swear
Nothing could break it or sever the ties
Of the silver thread running through her indigo eyes
It's stronger than anything you've ever known
And I'll hold on forever
I'll hold on forever
I will hold on forever 'til it takes me back home
