We said our promises by candlelight

You hold my hands, I was dressed in white

We were young

How can we see that far?

How can we see that far?



I knew I wanted you like no one else

I told my momma that Id found myself

In your eyes

How can we see that far?

How can we see that far?



But like your daddy said

The same sun that melts the wax can harden clay

And the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay

And the mighty wind that knocks us down

If we lean into it

Will drive our fears away.



And when I woke in the dead of night

To hold my hands, push away the fright

Life had come--a son

How can we see that far?



Yeah, we were nervous and a little scared

Until the music of our babys cry

Filled the air

How can we see that far?



But like your daddy said

The same sun that melts the wax can harden clay

And the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay

And the mighty wind that knocks us down

If we lean into it

Will drive our fears away.



We might die

We might live

We could hurt each other badly

Do things, things so hard to forgive

Ooooh, and if time is not our friend

Your mind might forget me before the end

And oh, I cannot

I cannot look that far.



But like your daddy said

How can we see that far?

The same sun that melts the wax can harden clay

And the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay

And the mighty wind that knocks us down

If we lean into it

How can we see that far?

Got to lean into it

Will drive our fears away

Its the same sun, yeah

And the same rain

Its the same sun

And the same rain.
