Living

(album: The Mountain - 2018)

This morning I got up at 6:01
I walked out and saw the rising sun
And I drank it in like whiskey
I saw a tree I've seen a thousand times
A bird on a branch and I watched it fly away in the wind
And it hit me
It's a beautiful world sometimes I don't see so clear

Some days you just breathe in
Just try to break even
Sometimes your heart's pounding out of your chest
Sometimes it's just beating
Some days you just forget
What all you've been given
Some days you just get by
And some days you're just alive
Some days you're living
Some days you're living

I went back in and fired the coffee up
She walked in the kitchen like she always does
In my t-shirt and it killed me
And I kissed her like it was the first time
She laughed and looked at me like I'd lost my mind
I said "Baby, I love you, can't live without you, I know I don't say it enough"

Some days you just breathe in
Just try to break even
Sometimes your heart's pounding out of your chest
Sometimes it's just beating
Some days you just forget
What all you've been given
Some days you just get by
And some days you're just alive
Some days you're living

Like you never die
Blue's a little bluer up in the sky
You're high's a little high
You feel that fire you've been missing
Some days you're living

It's a beautiful world sometimes I don't see so clear

Some days you start singing
And you don't need a reason
Sometimes the world's just right
Your clear eyes ain't even blinking
Got a heart full of grateful
For all you've been given
Some days you just get by
Yeah some days you're just alive
Some days you're living
Some days you're living

Living like you'll never die
Blue's a little bluer up in the sky
You're high's a little high
You feel that fire you've been missing
Some days you're living
Some days you're living
