You Make a Way, Ray

[Verse 1]
You leave the curtains half undone
Morning spills across the floor
A paper cup, a borrowed coat
And one good reason to want more

[Pre-Chorus]
I was waiting for a sign
You arrived right on time

[Chorus]
Ray, cut a path across the room
Turn the quiet into bloom
Every place I thought was gray
Finds a little gold in Ray
Ray, when the long road bends away
I can face another day
Hold that brightness where you stay
You make a way, Ray

[Verse 2]
The old train shakes the window glass
We count the stops and miss our turn
You laugh and let the moment pass
Some lessons need a little burn

[Pre-Chorus]
I was losing track of why
You looked up and changed the sky

[Chorus]
Ray, cut a path across the room
Turn the quiet into bloom
Every place I thought was gray
Finds a little gold in Ray
Ray, when the long road bends away
I can face another day
Hold that brightness where you stay
You make a way, Ray

[Bridge]
If the weather changes fast
If the easy hours don't last
Keep one hand inside the flame
Call me by my given name

[Final Chorus]
Ray, cut a path across the room
Turn the quiet into bloom
Every place I thought was gray
Finds a little gold in Ray
Ray, when the long road bends away
I can face another day
Hold that brightness where you stay
You make a way, Ray

[Outro]
You make a way
You make a way, Ray
