Sun up, we’re up, we’re dressed
A cup of coffee and a kiss goodbye
In a hurry and we always miss
The best part of a morning sky
But here we are eight hours later
At home where the world winds down
Couldn’t paint a better picture
Than the one we’re in right now
You and me in the amber glow
Side by side on the back-porch swing
Watching that ol' sun sink low
Ain’t life a beautiful thing
A little breeze and a wind-chime song
All the worries of the day let go
I’ve been waiting for it all day long
You and me in the amber glow
Long shadows slowly fading
Telling us the day is done
Move a little bit closer baby
This night has just begun
Here comes that final moment
Like a candle going out (burning down)
Can’t be no better feeling
Than what we’re feeling now
You and me in the amber glow
Side by side on the back-porch swing
Watching that ol' sun sink low
Ain’t life a beautiful thing
A little breeze and a wind-chime song
All the worries of the day let go
I’ve been waiting for it all day long
You and me in the amber glow
Everyday it seems brand new
Something to look forward to
You and me in the amber glow
Side by side on the back-porch swing
Watching that ol' sun sink low
Ain’t life a beautiful thing
A little breeze and a wind-chime song
All the worries of the day let go
I’ve been waiting for it all day long
You and me in the amber glow
