Weathered Willow

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Mornin' light through the kitchen pane Coffee steam and a country lane Two old boots by the screen door swing Lord, what a quiet joy it brings I look across and I count my stars For every road that brought us this far [Chorus] Like a weathered willow we will always dance in the rain together Roots run deep, darlin', come whatever weather Through the calm, through the storm, hand in hand You're my forever, my promised land [Verse 2] You're the strength when my own runs thin The steady hush when the world caves in A caring heart, a giving soul The loyal love that makes me whole Jessica, you got me through the night When I couldn't find my own light [Chorus] Like a weathered willow we will always dance in the rain together Roots run deep, darlin', come whatever weather Through the calm, through the storm, hand in hand You're my forever, my promised land [Bridge] The kids are grown like wildflowers tall But it's you and me, darlin', through it all Some days are heavy, some skies are gray But your faith, Jessica, lights the way [Verse 3] So let's grow old on this front porch swing Count the seasons, hear the robins sing Every wrinkle, every silver strand Is another verse in this wedding band Luckiest man beneath the sun Our forever song has just begun [Chorus] Like a weathered willow we will always dance in the rain together Roots run deep, darlin', come whatever weather Through the calm, through the storm, hand in hand You're my forever, my promised land [Outro] Jessica, my darlin', come what may I'll be loving you every day
