New Normal

We used to stay up talking until 2 A.M
Just a couple kids
Young and carefree
That was back when both of us could still sleep in
It's funny how it feels like ancient history

We'd listen to old records in our living room
Turn it up and feel the wood floor shaking
We didn't know how quickly we could trade that tune
For the sound of lullabies and babies

It's a new normal
Change is coming to the old routine
It's a new normal
A different season but the same dream

We brought her home when she was only two weeks old
Questions and confusion started swirling
We didn't know how much that extra chromosome
Would become an unexpected blessing

It's a new normal
Change is coming to the old routine
It's a new normal
A different season but the same dream

When I look back I see
All these changes are changing me
Every day am learning how to love
And I'm hoping that becomes
My new normal
Change is coming to the old routine
It's a new normal
A different season but the same old dream

It's a new normal
Change is coming to the old routine
It's a new normal
A different season but the same dream
