Hard to Count the Ways

verse1

you leave your coffe mug right by the sink

with half a teaspoon left inside

you trace a circle when you sit and think

with your old keys right by your side

and when a sad movie comes on the screen

you look away to hide a tear

it's every little thing behind the scene

that makes me glad I've got you here

chorus

'cause I love the way you laugh when your surprised

and how you always look me in the eyes

the way you know exactly what to say

to take the heavy winters right out of my day

of all the blessings that the lord could send

you are my forever and my closest friend

yeah, from the morning light until the night is through

its hard to count the ways I love you

verse2

you wear that faded jacket in the spring

the one with pockets torn away

you hum along to tunes you cannot sing

but i could listen to you play

and when we walk along the crowded street

you always guide me to the inside lane

a quiet rhythm in the way we meet

that keeps me safe from any rain

chorus

cause I love the way you laugh when your surprised

and how you always look me in the eyes

the way you know exactly what to say

to take the heaviest winters right out of my day

of all the blessings that the lord could send

you are my forever and my closest friend

yeah, from the morning light until the night is through

it's hard to count the ways I love you

bridge

the world moves fast and everything can change

plans we made can fall apart

but you keep me steady when the sky looks strange

with the simple beating of your heart

guitar solo

chorus

'cause I love the way you laugh when your surprised

and how you always look me in the eyes

and how you always know exactly what to say

to take the heaviest winters right out of my day

of all the blessings that the lord could send

you are my forever and my closest friend

yeah, and from the morning light until the night is through

it's hard to count the ways I love you

outro

oh the simple things you do..

yeah, I love the way that I am loved by you..
