I watch the morning touch the floor
She's the quiet at my door
She leaves her keys upon the stand
A map of places never planned
She takes the car and drives the bend
And makes the broken highway mend
I never ask which way she goes
She is the only wind that blows
And when the shadows crowd the room
And tell me
winter's coming soon
I look to where she used to stand
She's why the summer comes around She's
why my feet can touch the ground
She's why the stars begin to shine
And why I'm glad this life is mine
She's why the sun begins to rise
I see my future in her eyes
The kitchen holds her coffee cup
The morning sun is catching up
She laughs at things I never say
And turns the grayest sky to day
There is no map that we must trace
She's why the summer comes around She's why my feet can touch
the ground
She's why the stars begin to shine
And why I'm glad this life is mine
She's why the sun begins to rise
I see my future in her eyes
It's not the words she speaks aloud
Or how she stands within a crowd
It's just the way she turns to see
The better man inside of me
She's why the summer comes around She's why my feet can touch
the ground
She's why the stars begin to shine
And why I'm glad this life is mine She's why I'm coming
home She's why
