When the Morning Finds Us

Verse 1The last bus paints the ceiling
Then rolls beyond the square
Your shoes are by the doorway
There's a ribbon in your hair
We used to talk in always
Like the word could make it true
Now I set the morning alarm
So I can wake with you

Pre-ChorusWe can't hold the hours still
But there's something small we can build

ChorusWhen the morning finds us
I'll be reaching for your hand
I can't promise you an easy road
But I'll do the best I can
Love is how we keep on choosing
When the easy days are through
When the morning finds us
I'll be making room for you

Verse 2We'll lose a little patience
We'll miss a turn sometimes
We'll carry different worries
And get home at different times
But I can learn your silence
And you can learn my fears
We can make a life of mornings
That becomes a life of years

Pre-ChorusWe can't make the seasons stay
We can turn toward each other every day

ChorusWhen the morning finds us
I'll be reaching for your hand
I can't promise you an easy road
But I'll do the best I can
Love is how we keep on choosing
When the easy days are through
When the morning finds us
I'll be making room for you

BridgeNo crowd to see it
No promise carved in stone
Just your name across the doorway
Beside the one I've always known

Final ChorusWhen the morning finds us
And the light comes down the hall
We can start with one more kindness
We can start with something small
Love is how we keep on choosing
Every day we make it through
When the morning finds us
I'll be making room for you

OutroWhen the morning finds us
There's room for me and you
