I want the mornings and the afternoons
And every passing sun
I want my nail polish to flake into the grass
Until we’re done
I hope you never turn your eyes away
From what you love to see
Whether the mornings and the setting suns
The afternoons or me
And I hope you’ll find
what you needed most in life
And I hope in time
You’ll have love, a house, and wife
And I don’t know yet
If I’m standing by your side
When you finally find
Your love, your house, and wife
And I hope we find
The fruit growing on the vine
You told me love is like a setting sun
There’s beauty while it lasts
But the darkness that comes when it's done
Will take some time to pass
But did I forget to mention
My love for all things night
And I can’t wait to watch flowers glow
When you do what is right
And I would pray to god
That we would dance among the stars
But I know deep down
That’s not for us in the cards
I told myself I’d be willing to watch you go
But it still is hard to watch the sunset lose its show
I tried for years so you would see me come to light
But now we’re here I hope you’ll do what is right
I want the mornings and the afternoons
And every passing sun
I want my nail polish to flake into the grass
Until we’re done
I hope you never turn your eyes away
From what you love to see
Whether the mornings and the setting suns
The afternoons or me
And I hope you’ll find
what you needed most in life
And I hope in time
You’ll have love, a house, and wife
And I don’t know yet
If I’m standing by your side
When you finally find
Your love, your house, and wife
And I hope we find
The fruit growing on the vine
