Why I Wake Early

Amy Speace

[Verse 1]
Used to walk without shoes on the sand
These days I'm afraid of the heat
Once I leaned into my lover's hands
Now I just sing myself to sleep
I used to laugh and I used to cry
As easy as the sun descends in the west
She doesn't argue over which way to fly
She just bows her weary head instead

[Verse 2]
These days I'm doing my best to stay honest
Getting older and older with each passing wave
The people I love and the prayers that I promise
Mean more to me now than they did yesterday
It's true when they say that the years spin too quickly
All those warnings like old clichés
The dawn is the best time to sit still and listen
It's why I wake early every day

[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 3]
I borrow these words from a wise old poet
She's left her rhymes to salt and sea
Spent her life circling the fauna and flora
The cold northern mornings, the southbound geese
Her poetry moves me to open my arms
And pay more attention to you than to me
Love without knowing the end of the song
And watch it unfold with the greatest of ease
And know that that's enough for me

[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
