Every Last One - Ron Sexsmith

Every last star in the night

From my window

I would wish upon with all my might

‘Til in that darkness I knew

Every wish would come true

Every last one

Some pray when all is lost

Hoping to find that God is listening

But the weary voice deep in my mind

Says «Who am I kidding, my Lord»

Every prayer fell short

Every last one

But my love was true

And I’ve tried my best to tell you in song

Every last one

Every last one

I don’t mind saying I’m lost

Every last song has survived

Through the heartache

Of our humbling and insignificant lives

Telling us all to be brave

Enough to face each day

Every last one
