lyrics

Some God left a beautiful morning waiting here for us to find.
Hallelujah!
I wish that you and I felt like this all the time.
I watch as you walk to the window and pull the curtains open wide.
Let it in, the world as it is, and illuminate our little lives.
It only takes a little light.

But every night, beside you, I lie awake.

Honey, I’m doing everything I know to do, but it’s still not enough.
Honey, I’m getting buried, to tell you the truth, just trying to keep this up.
Some days are worse than others.
Most nights I watch the moon as it travels to the other corner of my view.

So what do I do when every night, beside you, I lie awake?
