Till you can’t

(Verse 1)

Wake up before the sunrise burns

Coffee cold but the world still turns

Tiny shoes by the front door mat

Bills piled up and she handles that

Runs on prayers and a second hand clock

Holds the whole house when the whole world rocks

Nobody sees all the tears she hides

Still somehow she keeps the light alive

(Pre-Chorus)

She says “baby chase every dream you got”

Even when hers got tied in knots

Yeah she gave her wings so yours could fly

That kind of love don’t ever die

(Chorus)

So hug her now till you can’t

Call her up every chance you get

Sit on that porch and hold her hand

Listen close while you still can

Cause one day the house goes quiet

And you’d give the world just to hear her laughing

So tell your mama that you love her

Dance in that kitchen while you can

Yeah life goes faster than you think

So love her hard till you can’t

(Verse 2)

She wore exhaustion like a wedding ring

Still made magic out of everything

Schoolyard fights and hospital halls

She stood ten feet high through it all

There were nights she broke down alone

But she made damn sure her babies got home

Strong enough to carry the pain

Soft enough to dance in the rain

(Bridge)

And when her hair turns silver gray

Don’t let her memory fade away

Cause heroes don’t always wear a cape

Sometimes they’re worn out and full of faith

(Final Chorus)

So hug her now till you can’t

Take those pictures, make those plans

Tell her all the things you mean

Before they turn to “should have beens”

Cause time don’t care about our hearts

It keeps on running through the dark

So thank that woman for who you are

And love her hard till you can’t

(Outro)

Yeah love her hard…

Till you can’t.
