In the morning when the world came awake
|
Before you knew me I knew your name
|
It was painted across the day as it breaks
|
An impression in your window frame
|
|
When you saw me out your window
|
Singing from the garden
|
Only the beginning
|
I'm only getting started
|
I don't mind the digging
|
Baby, I'll work harder
|
I've been washing dishes
|
Singing from the bottom
|
|
But one day I'll be running this place
|
And one day I could take you away
|
But I want you to wonder what's my name
|
Because I need you to want me the same
|
|
When you saw me washing dishes
|
Singing from the bottom
|
Only the beginning
|
I'm only getting started
|
I don't mind the digging
|
Baby, I'll work harder
|
I've been in the ashes
|
Singing from the garden
|
|
Where everything reaches for the sun
|
Still unsure of what we'll become
|
But I need you to reach out to me
|
See in me more than I could see
|
Because I'm afraid that
|
|
One day is only two words we say
|
I don't want to let them get in the way
|
Of all the plans that we should be making right now
|
Right now
|
|
Who took the time and where did they take it
|
I want to take it back
|
I don't want them to break it
|
All these plans that we should be making right now
|
Right now
|
|
You see one day I'll be running this place
|
And one day I could take you away
|
But I want you to wonder what's my name
|
Because I need you to want me the same
|
|
When you saw me out your window
|
Singing from the bottom
|
Only the beginning
|
I'm only getting started
|
I don't mind the digging
|
Baby, I'll work harder
|
I've been washing dishes
|
Singing from the bottom
|
|
One day is only two words we say
|
I don't want to let them get in the way
|
Of all the plans that we should be making right now
|
Right now
|
|
Who took the time and where did they take it
|
I want to take it back
|
I don't want them to break it
|
All these plans that we should be making right now
