[Verse 1] Amy, your coffee’s cooling by the window You’re reading names from an old birthday book I watch you circle dates in blue ink And find a thousand ways to stay and look [Pre-Chorus] I don’t need a grand parade Or promises carved into stone You turn the ordinary golden And make this little place a home [Chorus] Amy, if the years come quickly I’ll meet them walking by your side Through every door we haven’t opened With your hand folded into mine And when the world gets loud around us I’ll be the quiet you can hear Amy, my heart knows where it’s going As long as you are here [Verse 2] Your jacket’s hanging on the kitchen chair One sleeve turned inside out again There’s flour dust along the counter From the pie you made for all our friends [Pre-Chorus] I used to chase the distant things And measure life by what I’d won Now I count the small familiar moments Like the morning finding us as one [Chorus] Amy, if the years come quickly I’ll meet them walking by your side Through every door we haven’t opened With your hand folded into mine And when the world gets loud around us I’ll be the quiet you can hear Amy, my heart knows where it’s going As long as you are here [Bridge] If our plans change shape like weather If a hard day finds the door I will choose you in the middle Not just when the sky is clear [Final Chorus] Amy, let the years come quickly There’s no place I’d rather be Every road we haven’t traveled Looks like home when you’re with me And when the world gets loud around us I’ll draw you close and hold you near Amy, my heart knows where it’s going As long as you are here [Outro] As long as you are here Amy, I’ll be here
