The Gift

O.A.R. - The Gift

From night til dawn, you soldiered on, did ya?

Each day is a gift

But you lead 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

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

Passing in the night between the darkness and the rain

At the crack of 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 it was for you

Could never be for me

This will have to do

Yet after all you've said and all you've done

I know you never meant to hurt no one

And nothing has to change

You and I are strange

Passing in the night between the darkness and the rain

Nothing has to change

You and I can be strange

Passing in the days between the morning and the rain

I can see you now, it's like you're never gone

From dusk til dawn, you soldiered on

Like each day was a gift

Oh you lead us strong but you couldn't hold on

And that's fine cause each day was a gift

I don't know when I'll be home

So save a place for me til I get there

I don't know when I'll be home

So save a place for me

For me

For me

For me

For me
