Part IV: Morning in May

[Verse 1] Your socks on the wood floor The moment I'd hoped for I'm terrified to think you might be real I curl up behind you Fit my body to yours like a shell I smell your hair, oh love, I can't believe you I squeeze you to make sure you're really here And I'm overwhelmed [Chorus] I've been waiting for so long To touch you and sleep in your eyes And now, as my heart's beating so hard I hold on and keep you at home in my arms [Verse 2] They tried to console me But you're all the consolation I ever needed Years of smelling the clothes you left behind The photographs that seemed so far away I don't need them now - you turn to me alive, awake, and blinking, baby "Back so soon?" you ask, but I smile cause I never left at all [Chorus] [Bridge] You check the clock, it's time to go You grab your keys and you're out the door I step outside and you're waving goodbye It's all happening again like before As you're starting the car and I'm tearing inside I knock on your window, you stop just in time Around to the other side I say, "Baby, I thought I'd come along for the ride." [Outro] I've been waiting for so long (Time slows, and I take your hand) To touch you and sleep in your eyes (I hold you as we lose control) Together, our hearts beating so hard Hold on, baby, we're almost home...
