Hollyn's song reflects on childhood memories and the gradual realization of God's presence and care throughout life. The lyrics paint nostalgic images of simple moments, like blackberry juice on a shirt and dandelion fuzz, while acknowledging that pain and brokenness come with growing up. The chorus expresses a desire to see God's ways and respond in kind, trusting that He has been holding the singer all along. It's a gentle, reflective piece about faith, gratitude, and the comfort of God's steady guidance through life's changes.

Blackberry juice on my white tee shirt
Wind on my face I didn't know hurt
Dandelion fuzz on my jeans
It was two of us
You and my needs
I didn't know this was something
Til I was fallin'
Honestly I didn't know
Til I look back
All of the ways
And all the times you held me then
I was falling for you
I was falling for you
The path to the house was paved in mud
My little brother growing up
Dancing away like a tide
And the frame is dusk
And all that we knew was taking care of us
Show me one thing
And I'll believe it all
Show me your ways
And I will show it all to you
Show it all to you
Oh show me your ways
And I will show it all to you
And I know that things are broken
Things are hurting
Now I'm older
You're still showing me your secrets
Laying my head on your shoulder
Every time I turn the pages
I still feel your eyes, your gaze is
Holding mine
Blackberry juice on my white tee shirt
Wind on my face I didn't know hurt
