[Verse 1] Your blue coat hangs beside the door Rain beads silver on the floor You set two cups beside the flame And ask me softly if I’m staying [Pre-Chorus] I’ve carried every mile alone A paper map, a borrowed home But when your hand finds mine tonight The road ahead feels kind [Chorus] I will be here when the morning breaks When the brave face bends and the strong heart shakes Through every season, every turn we take I will be here, I will be here Let the years come rolling like a river wide I’ll meet them with you, walking side by side And when the whole world asks what love can do I’ll be here, choosing you [Verse 2] The kettle sings; the window clears You laugh about our younger years A grocery list, your crooked pen The little things that bring me home again [Pre-Chorus] No grand promise needs a crown Just your voice when the lights go down And all the words I couldn’t say Come easy when you stay [Chorus] I will be here when the morning breaks When the brave face bends and the strong heart shakes Through every season, every turn we take I will be here, I will be here Let the years come rolling like a river wide I’ll meet them with you, walking side by side And when the whole world asks what love can do I’ll be here, choosing you [Bridge] If the door swings wide to a harder day If the plans we made have to change their shape Put your tired head against my heart We’ll find the next step, we’ll make a start [Final Chorus] I will be here when the morning breaks When the brave face bends and the strong heart shakes Through every season, every turn we take I will be here, I will be here Let the years come rolling like a river wide I’ll meet them with you, walking side by side And when the whole world asks what love can do I’ll be here, choosing you I’ll be here—choosing you [Outro] Your blue coat waits beside the door And I’m not leaving anymore
