Lyrics:
Darling I will be the wind behind your sails
I will be the one to tell your tales
I will be the one to hold your secrets
I will be your earth when all else fails
So if you’re ever scared to jump before me
Take the fear off of your face
Cause I will be the one to write your story
And I won’t forget a single page

But you could be the author
Oh Darling, you could be the author
Darling, you could be the author

I’ll begin by writing down your name
You and I will be the characters
We’ll meet by the seventh page
Suburban drama picture perfect in the frame
But by the seventh chapter
things will never be the same

Eighth grade we met, it wouldn’t be the last time
The suspense, did I meet you in a past life
Heroes in our story, save the world like a pastime
But the road to happy endings ain’t a fast line

The epiphany, in chapter 22
Recurring theme of me living life without you
Some would call it tragic but it’s only just the start
Cause even fate couldn’t keep them apart

Darling I will be the wind behind your sails
I will be the one to tell your tales
I will be the one to hold your secrets
I will be your earth when all else fails
So if you’re ever scared to jump before me
Take the fear off of your face
Cause I will be the one to write your story
And I won’t forget a single page

But you could be the author
Oh Darling, you could be the author
Darling, you could be the author

So follow me
Through the page,
Don’t pray for perfection

I won’t be
The one to save
You from all your questions

I still see
That you are brave
Despite the scars you hide

So don’t turn away from the night, don’t turn away from the night

Darling I will be the wind behind your sails
I will be the one to tell your tales
I will be the one to hold your secrets
I will be your earth when all else fails
So if you’re ever scared to jump before me
Take the fear off of your face
Cause I will be the one to write your story
And I won’t forget a single page

But you could be the author
Oh Darling, you could be the author
Darling, you could be the author

I discovered him a few hours ago, in a short improv video on YT and fell in love with his music and his fantastic voice. I've already downloaded all his songs I could find and listen to them non-stop. This kid is a blessing! And what a good job you're doing mom! And by the way...I'm 60 years old and I'm thrilled with the success it's having among our generation. He deserves it, to the fullest.
