Gift

O.A.R. · All Sides [2008]

From night to dawn

you soldiered on, did ya?

Each day is a gift.

But you led us strong

and kept us on, did ya,

like each day is a gift.



I never thought that I'd be here with you

saying all these words that I have to,

but after all is said and all is done

I never meant to ever hurt no one.



And nothing has to change.

You and I are strange.

Passin' in the night between the darkness and the rain.



At the crack a dawn

you grabbed my arm, did ya

each day was a gift.

You told me slow

before I move on,

you must remember each day is a gift.



I never understood what was for you

could never be for me

this'll hafta do

but after all ya said and all ya done

I know you never meant to hurt no one



And nothing has to change.

You and I are strange.

Passin' in the night between the darkness and the rain.



Nothing has to change.

You and I can be strange

Passin' in the days between the morning and the rain.



I can see you now

its like you'd never gone.



From dusk til dawn

you soldiered on

like each day was a gift.



Ohhhh you led us strong

but you couldn't hold on

and that's fine

cuz each day was a gift.



I dont know when I'll be home

so save a place for me til I get there

I dont know when I'll be home

so save a place for me

for me (x4)
