Better In The Morning Light

Verse

Four fifteen and the blinds cut gold

Across your shoulder where you're sleeping slow

I count the freckles like they're something I could keep

Kitchen radio still hums that same old song

Coffee ring on the table from last night

Your jacket's hanging where you left it on the chair

Pre-Chorus

And I know the sun's gonna climb

And I know we're on borrowed time

So tell me how do I hold

A feeling this soft, this gold

Chorus

I'm gonna keep this, keep this

Fold it up and put it in my pocket

Every little piece of you and me

Everything's better in the morning light

Better in the morning light

I don't wanna let this moment go

Verse

Two coffee cups still warm on the sill

Your laugh from the hallway, it's echoing still

Sheets got your shape pressed into the seams

I'm learning your quiet like a language I need

The clock on the wall keeps ticking soft

But right here, right now, we're not counting cost

Pre-Chorus

And I know the sun's gonna climb

And I know we're on borrowed time

So tell me how do I hold

A feeling this soft, this gold

Chorus

I'm gonna keep this, keep this

Fold it up and put it in my pocket

Every little piece of you and me

Everything's better in the morning light

Better in the morning light

I don't wanna let this moment go

Bridge

Maybe I don't need to hold it tight

Maybe some things just were built for light

Let it warm me now and fade tonight

Still be grateful that it came alive

Still be grateful that you're here beside

Chorus

I'm gonna keep this, keep this

Carry it with me long after

Every little piece of you and me

Everything was better in the morning light

Better in the morning light

I won't let that moment go

No, I won't let that moment go
