[Verse 1] Amy, you leave your coffee by the window With the morning folded in your hands I watch the sunlight find your shoulder And forget the plans I thought I had [Pre-Chorus] I used to think a heart could wander Till it found a place to rest Then you turned and smiled across the kitchen And made a home inside my chest [Chorus] Amy, if the years come on like weather I will meet them by your side Through the little days and long December You are still my reason why I don't need a road that leads forever I just need your hand in mine Amy, every good thing I believe in Began the day you became mine [Verse 2] Your old blue sweater's on the sofa And your book is open by the bed There are ordinary kinds of treasures In every word you leave unsaid [Pre-Chorus] When the world gets loud around us And the easy answers disappear I'll be the one who keeps on choosing The life we built together here [Chorus] Amy, if the years come on like weather I will meet them by your side Through the little days and long December You are still my reason why I don't need a road that leads forever I just need your hand in mine Amy, every good thing I believe in Began the day you became mine [Bridge] And if our hair turns silver slowly If these hands grow tired and worn I'll still know you by the way you laugh The way you greet the morning sun [Final Chorus] Amy, if the years come on like weather I will meet them by your side Through the little days and long December You are still my reason why I don't need a road that leads forever I just need your hand in mine Amy, every good thing I believe in Began the day you became mine [Outro] Amy, every good thing I believe in Began the day you became mine
