We could pretend that we're walking on petals and light, golden light Flaunting our love like a dance step mastered, turning from left to right But after all the colored lights are gone Time will leave the ashes and the dawn You rise and meet the day I'm watching you go, it's like spying on hope ever onward with more to burn Giving your hands and your heart to the weave of the world, though it fights each turn But you do not give up so easily That's how I know you won't surrender me You rise and meet the day It's all I need, it's all I need to know, it's all I need to know And I love you all the time I had always feared that some gloomy ingratitude would seize me But you have held the dream like every morning finds A way to hang the sun up in the sky And now I think I have it too The greatest part I learned from you You rise and meet the day And I can see kids, maybe yours, maybe not, oh oh oh, I can hear what they'll say Laughing at pictures with the old-fashioned hats And the clothes that we're wearing today And they will know the true and humble power Of love that made it through the darkest hour You rise and meet the day It's all I need, it's all I need to know, it's all I need to know
