Lyrics

Have you eaten? Are you hungry? Are you cold?
Here’s a blanket. Just rest now. I made tea.
I brought flowers. They’re your favorite.
Are you lonely? Sit with me.

You’ve been crying. You’ve needed to.
Take a breath. Take a minute. Drink some water.
You did enough. You are enough.
I am sorry. You deserve better.

You are right. Things are hard. I see you.
Tell me anything. I will hear.
I believe you.
Whatever you need. I will try.
You are safe. I am here.

Thank you, Summer!

This is lovely. Says what's needed. Not too much. The perfect amount.

This delivery is sweet and reassuring—something so many of us need right now. Thank you, Summer!

@philkmills 1w

Very pretty and well-constructed. (Makes me think of the "as you wish" phrase from The Princess Bride.)

@laurenoxford 1w

in awe of you.

what a simple, perfect, brilliant gift you have created and given to us.

i needed this hug today. thank you for making this. thank you for being you. thank you for writing about such darkness to make us feel seen, and such light to make us feel known, and loved. i want to learn it so that i can sing it back to you, my friend. <3

Ooh, this is so sweet. They are the three wordses that we need to hear more than *those* three words. On second hearing, this song is much bigger than it seems.
You found perfection in simplicity.

My three words are "It's definitely onions." I got teary also. Thank you for writing this. So many combos of three words that mean a ton. *hugs*

Lovely song that beautifully illustrates the power of love in three words. Thank you for sharing this with us.

@ericdistadMod 1w

I love this so much!

@harperjen 1w

I started crying approximately 7 seconds into listening, and am now typing with wet cheeks. Love you, my friend. Thank you.

I absolutely LOVE this, Summer. What a beautiful empathetic warm hug in three-word sentences. The structure is so clever, and the message is simple but effective... the world really needs more empathy. If more people had it, gave it, and received it I truly believe we'd be in a lot better place. Thank you for this song.
