We said our promises by candlelight
You held my hands, I was dressed in white
We were young (how can we see that far?)
(How can we see that far?)
I knew I wanted you like no one else
I told my momma that I'd found myself in your eyes
(How can we see that far?)
(How can we see that far?)
But like your daddy said, the same sun
That melts the wax can harden clay
And the same rain
That drowns the rat will grow the hay
And the mighty wind
That knocks us down if we lean into it
Will drive our fears away
And then I woke you in the dead of night
To hold my hands, push away the fright
Life had come (how can we see that far?)
A sun (how can we see that far?)
Yeah, we were nervous and a little scared
Until the music of our baby's cry filled the air
(How can we see that far?)
(How can we see that far?)
But like your daddy said, the same sun
That melts the wax can harden clay
And the same rain
That drowns the rat will grow the hay
And the mighty wind
That knocks us down if we lean into it
Will drive our fears away
We might die, we might live
We could hurt each other badly, do things
Things so hard to forgive
Ooh, and if time is not our friend
Your mind might forget me before the end
And, oh, I cannot, I cannot look that far
But like your daddy said, the same sun (how can we see that far?)
That melts the wax can harden clay
And the same rain
That drowns the rat will grow the hay
And the mighty wind
That knocks us down if we lean into it (how can we see that far?)
Gotta lean into it
Will drive our fears away
It's the same sun, yeah
And the same rain
It's the same sun
And the same rain
