Until Then

I can hear you every morning
Making coffee in the other room
I'd do better if I woke up
Not an hour spent to soon
While your young heart
Still has reasons to let me through

I just pray we don't stop dancin'
To the song in our heads
May our victories be quiet
And a glass we'll raise instead
Of making names and putting trophies
In our chests

So would you hold me again
Even as I've changed as I am
Lay your head on down again

Would you tell me what you're meanin'
When the smile leaves your lips
I don't need you to be golden
Just an honest word and kiss
I find you to be the storm I can't outrun

If ever we become like strangers
Just like ghosts passing in a hall
I will set this house on fire
Burn a whole in every frozen wall
But till then would you hold my hand
And keep it warm

So would you hold me again
Even as I've changed as I am
Lay your head on down again

Someday all my skin will be heavy
And the gleam in my eyes will go dark
All my love will be given
And then death will do us part
But till then I'll tend the garden and lock the doors
But till then I'll tend the garden and lock the doors
