The Only Truth I've Ever Known

Verse 1

Morning finds me watching how you sleep

The kettle hums a tune we both know

You stir and pull the covers to your chin

And I stay still to let the quiet grow

Pre-Chorus

I don't need a promise carved in stone

Just your hand in mine when nights get cold

Chorus

I'll love you till the day I die

Till the last leaf falls and the river's dry

I'll love you till the day I die

That's the only truth I've ever known

Verse 2

We were young and foolish with our plans

Built a home from borrowed boards and hope

Years went by like freight trains through the pines

And still you're the softest thing I know

Pre-Chorus

Time keeps moving slower than it seems

But you're the steady ground beneath my dreams

Chorus

I'll love you till the day I die

Till the last leaf falls and the river's dry

I'll love you till the day I die

That's the only truth I've ever known

Bridge

Let the seasons turn

Let the gray come creeping in

Let the highways call

I will always find my way back home again

Chorus

I'll love you till the day I die

Till the last leaf falls and the river's dry

I'll love you till the day I die

That's the only truth I've ever known
