Prompt / Lyrics
[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)
