A Day Past Eternity

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some things start before you know their weight A moment on a stairwell, freshman fate Two kids who didn't know what love could be Just leaning close and letting hearts run free We walked those halls like nothing else was real Too young to name the depth of what we'd feel [Chorus] I loved you then, I love you now Through every mile and broken vow A day past eternity won't be enough for me Katherine, I loved you then somehow [Verse 2] You chased your dreams through college halls and lights I wore the uniform through endless nights Two highways running far apart for years Through thirty seasons, laughter, prayers, and tears But something kept your name inside my chest A quiet flame that never came to rest [Chorus] I loved you then, I love you now Through every mile and broken vow A day past eternity won't be enough for me Katherine, I loved you then somehow [Bridge] Call it fate or call it heaven's hand It brought us back where we were meant to stand The road was long but led me home to you [Verse 3] Now every birthday candle that you blow Just lights the years I'm grateful that I know That first kiss lives in everything we are Two travelers guided by the same old star So here's to healing, comfort, and this love The kind that only comes from up above Katherine, you were worth the wait, my dear [Chorus] I loved you then, I love you now Through every mile and broken vow A day past eternity won't be enough for me Katherine, I loved you then somehow [Outro] Happy birthday to my first and last My future's sweeter knowing you're my past
