The Chair Beside You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some mornings break us open slow, Some days demand more than we know. But love walks in with steady hands, And quiet hearts that understand. A whispered prayer, a softer light, A promise made to hold on tight. [Chorus] I'd cross the miles, I'd still the storm, I'd be the place that keeps you warm. Whatever comes, wherever we go, Baby, I am your honey — and I want you to know. Through every tear, through every sigh, I'll be right here, right by your side. [Verse 2] You send me songs to say you care, Sweet melodies float through the air. Three years ago at Marlo's place, I found my home inside your face. You say that heaven sent me down — Girl, you're the answered prayer I found. [Chorus] I'd cross the miles, I'd still the storm, I'd be the place that keeps you warm. Whatever comes, wherever we go, Baby, I am your honey — and I want you to know. Through every tear, through every sigh, I'll be right here, right by your side. [Bridge] Alicia, my sweetie, my heart, my song, Every chair beside you is where I belong. Holding your hand through the longest day, Loving you, baby, in every way. [Verse 3] So lean on me when skies turn gray, I'll bring the sun, I'll find the way. Alicia, you are gratitude, The healing in my every mood. Whatever this life asks of us, I'll answer love, I'll answer trust. [Chorus] I'd cross the miles, I'd still the storm, I'd be the place that keeps you warm. Whatever comes, wherever we go, Baby, I am your honey — and I want you to know. [Outro] Alicia, sweetie, hear me say — I'll choose you, baby, every day.
