"Part IV: Morning In May"

Your socks on the wood floor
The moment I'd hoped for
I'm terrified to think you might be real
I curl up behind you
Fit my body to yours like a shell
I smell your hair, oh love, I can't believe you
I squeeze you to make sure you're really here and I'm overwhelmed

I've been waiting for so long
To touch you and sleep in your eyes
And now as my heart's beating so hard
I hold on and keep you at home in my arms

They tried to console me
But you're all the consolation I ever needed
Years of smelling the clothes you left behind
Photographs that seemed so far away
I don't need them now-you turn to me alive, awake, and blinking, baby
"Back so soon?" you ask, but I smile cause I never left at all

I've been waiting for so long
To touch you and sleep in your eyes
And now as my heart's beating so hard
I hold on and keep you at home in my arms

You check the clock, it's time to go
You grab your keys and you're out the door
I step outside and you're waving goodbye
It's all happening again like before
As you're starting the car and I'm tearing inside
I knock on your window, you stop just in time
Around to the other side
I say, "Baby, I thought I'd come along for the ride"

I've been waiting for so long
(Time slows, and I take your hand)
To touch you and sleep in your eyes
(I hold you as we lose control)
Together our hearts beating so hard
Hold on, baby we're almost home
