Favorite Time of Light lyrics
Leave the dishes in the sink don't overthink it
Close up the brokenhearted piano
Join me on the porch if you can swing it
Let's dream an ocean in Ohio
You've been working so hard I can feel it -
The clean and honest sweat upon your skin
I wanna see the rosy light on your face
Is this evening free or did it cost us everything
It's our favorite time of light
Just before the day kisses the night
You see the redwing blackbirds fly
The sun's a big ol' lazy eye
And when the day is bending low
And rolling fields begin to glow
Feels like we traveled all this way
Just so I could hear you say
It's our favorite
Our favorite time of light
Can you still hear those children singing?
Remember Jesus Loves Me This I Know
Now there's just a lone blue heron flying
Dreaming an ocean in Ohio
It's our favorite time of light
Just before the day kisses the night
You see the redwing blackbirds fly
The sun's a big ol' lazy eye
The moon is waiting in the wings
Dreamin' up some midnight song to sing
And I know we'll be okay
Everytime I hear you say
It's our favorite
Our favorite time of light
The dreams I've dreamed I give them all to you now
I'm not really sure what shape they're in
Maybe they were all just too expensive
Maybe after dark we'll try again
So add this to your list of simple beauties
I know we're gonna miss it when we go
While barren fields undress their gentle mysteries
We dream an ocean in Ohio
It's our favorite time of light
Just before the day kisses the night
You see the redwing blackbirds fly
The sun's a big ol' lazy eye
When they lay me down at last
And this life is finally past
Just remember me this way
And don't forget to say
It's our favorite
Our favorite time of light
