Sweet Ellie

I feel you in the trees
And in the humming, the humming of the creek
You brought me to my knees
But the windy city feels so quiet underneath

And God I’ve done a thousand things, regretting some is still alright with me
People say and people try but nothing people say will get between, you and me

I cried the tears that brought us closer
We mourned the years, and saw your sister
I cried the tears that brought us closer, you and me,
Sweet Ellie

A word from jealous parts
Or make the claim that we missed the mark
Well there is peace in fathers heart
And I feel you feel you, feel you - alone in Woodward park

And god I’ve felt a thousand things, regretting some is still alright with me
People say and people try but nothing people say will get between, you and me

I cried the tears that brought us closer
We mourned the years, and saw your sister
I cried the tears that brought us closer, you and me, sweet Ellie

I cried the tears that brought us closer
We mourned the years, and saw your sister
I cried the tears that brought us closer, you and me, Sweet Ellie
Sweet Ellie


I feel you in the leaves
I feel you in the running of the creek
You brought me to my knees
You’re in perfect peace

I feel you in the leaves
I feel you in the running of the creek
You brought me to my knees
You’re in perfect peace

I feel you in the leaves
I feel you in the running of the creek
You brought me to my knees
You’re in perfect peace

Jordan Thompson took the lead on this composition, and it is a gorgeous piece. Him and his brother Jake Wells held space for our story, and truly listened to what I shared and put a lot of things I couldn’t even fully put into words into heart striking lyrics. And I cannot get over how the vibe is exactly what I was dreaming for.
Sweet Ellie, one day I will hug you so tightly and probably won’t let you go for years. Until then I’ll sing songs with you and feel your presence in the trees and creeks.
