Lyrics

Hello there, my friend
Here we stand in the space between ends and beginnings
A comfortable place for the world to stop spinning a while
And this aisle holds the first eager steps of many a mile

Would you care for my hand?
Paired, we stand in the face of a lifetime consenting
In the comforting grace of the world's misgivings denied
Beguiling the heart of the cynic to surrender a smile

And seconds will march into minutes, as minutes dissolve by the hour
And the hours conspire to set the days on fire
Spring catapults into summer. And summer, it burns into fall
Autumn, she sleeps through the winter as years freeze in photos on walls

And I know I want you with me
To march through this tunnel of time
For all the days and weeks and months and years of a lifetime

And so we begin
With rings and a vow to love and allow for forgiveness
With a kiss before family and friends bearing witness to faith
And a toast for the no longer lonely finding their way

In the glow, here we stand
Unafraid of the darkness beyond the light we are casting
But aware of the dangers out there in the vast, yet unknown
And willing to walk through the fire, but no more alone

And seconds will march into minutes, as minutes dissolve by the hour
And the hours conspire to set the days on fire
Spring catapults into summer. And summer, it burns into fall
And autumn, she sleeps through the winter as years freeze in photos on walls

And as distant horizons grow nearer
And the shape of my life becomes clear
I will hold in my heart this moment we're starting, right here

Hello there, my friend
Here we stand in the space between ends and beginnings
