[Verse 1]
You laughed at all my bad jokes
Knew my coffee
Knew my moods
Never thought that all this small talk
Was quietly making room for you
We were staying up till sunrise
Swearing it was “just as friends”
Didn’t feel the ground was moving
Didn’t see where this would end
[Chorus]
I get the rest of my life with you
My best friend
My safe place too
Didn’t know I needed you
’till my heart already knew
For every time you waited on my healing
Every tear you never let fall through
I get the rest of my life with you
I get the rest of my life with you (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
You listened through my chaos
Held your tongue
Just held my hand
All my storms and all my silence
You were there to understand
We were standing in the doorway
Laughing at the day we met
How were we so blind back then
To the love we’d never forget
[Chorus]
I get the rest of my life with you
My best friend
My safe place too
Didn’t know I needed you
’till my heart already knew
For every time you waited on my healing
Every tear you never let fall through
I get the rest of my life with you
I get the rest of my life with you (yeah, with you)
[Bridge]
Who knew the one beside me
Was the one I’d run to
All that time we called it “nothing”
Till “nothing” turned to truth
So here’s my heart
It’s open
All my days
I give them to
The patient soul who stayed
Till I could see it’s you
[Chorus]
I get the rest of my life with you
My best friend
My safe place too
Didn’t know I needed you
’till my heart already knew
For every time you waited on my healing
Every tear you never let fall through
I get the rest of my life with you
I get the rest of my life with you (with you, with you)
