Lyric

Coffee steam and cotton sheets

Bare feet on the wooden floor

You laugh at how I’m half asleep

But I’ve never felt this sure

Sun sneaks through the window frame

Catching every line of you

In this quiet

Calling my name

Like the day’s already new

First light on your face

All my troubles fade

Every dawn with you

Feels like starting over

We don’t have to race

We just let it break

Slow and soft and true

Every day’s a new day

With you

Old mug with the chipped-off paint

New plans on a scrap of mail

You talk about the week ahead

I just trace your fingertail

Birdsong in the backyard trees

Dishes in the open sink

Life is in these simple things

More than we ever think

First light on your face

All my troubles fade

Every dawn with you

Feels like starting over

We don’t have to race

We just let it break

Slow and soft and true

Every day’s a new day

With you

We’ve had storms

We’ve lost sleep

We’ve talked low on highway drives

Still we wake and choose to keep

Learning how to share this life (Oh oh)

So if the sky turns gray by noon

We’ve already made it through

‘Cause morning laid its gentle proof

Right here in this room

First light on your face

All my troubles fade

Every dawn with you

Feels like starting over

We don’t have to race

We just let it break

Slow and soft and true

Every day’s a new day

With you
