Early - By Amy Court and Joey Daigneault


It’s early, and early days are lovely
I’m impatient, but I’m wiser for the wait
The way they stir me, blurring over every word you say

But oh, the blush of lamplight
Brushing at your coat sleeve
Glossy sidewalk; the whistle of a train
And I am lost in you shining in the early morning rain

Do you think we’ll make them stay
I believe, I believe it could be so
Before it’s over, all over
Don’t you let those early days go

It’s early, too early to go home
And drunk on glimpses, the usually unseen
It may be early, but it’s already way too late for me

Do you think we’ll make them stay
I believe, I believe it could be so
Before it’s over, all over
Don’t you let those early days go

The smashing of daylight crashing in
Making a mess out of everything
But there in the splinters, I’ll be swept up again

Do you think we’ll make them stay
I believe, I believe it could be so
And I know we’ll make them stay
I believe, I believe it will be so
Before it’s over, all over
Don’t you let those early days go
