Tennessee Morning Light

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Down a hallway years ago Two young hearts we didn't know Would find their way through all the miles, Through all the tears and all the smiles. Life took us down its winding road, Carried burdens, carried loads, But somewhere in the great unknown, A quiet grace was leading us home. [Chorus] And oh, it's you, it's always been you, Forty years to find what's true. By the grace of heaven above, God gave me joy, God gave me love. A brand new dawn, a brand new song, Right where my heart has always belonged. [Verse 2] We packed our dreams and drove on down To Tennessee, our sweet new town, Where morning light spills through the pines And every day feels like a sign. One year of vows, one year of grace, I still get lost inside your face. The best friend that I ever knew Became the one I say "I do." [Chorus] And oh, it's you, it's always been you, Forty years to find what's true. By the grace of heaven above, God gave me joy, God gave me love. A brand new dawn, a brand new song, Right where my heart has always belonged. [Bridge] Jani, my comfort, my calm, The answer to an old, old prayer. Jani, you're my faithful home, And I thank God you're there. [Verse 3] So here's to all the years ahead, The quiet nights, the words unsaid, The coffee mornings, hand in hand, This second chance the Lord had planned. Jani, there's no place I'd rather be Than right beside you, wild and free. [Chorus] 'Cause oh, it's you, it's always been you, Forty years to find what's true. By the grace of heaven above, God gave me joy, God gave me love. [Outro] A brand new dawn, a brand new song, With you is where I belong.
