From the recording Take Time
Lyrics
TEN DAYS
Words and Music by James Keith Norman
VERSE #1:
Sunrise every morning.
Softly falling snow.
High waves on the sea.
Every day, a million things happen and they’re just,
meant to be.
Like that Monday when we were on that bus:
We were strangers meant to be an “us.”
CHORUS:
I know it’s only been ten days
but I am just amazed
that I know even at this time
I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine
always.
VERSE #2:
One bus-ride conversation
followed by a date
each and every night.
And we shared our secrets and all our hopes and fears at the
speed of light.
And there’s so much about which we agree,
from having children to our love of Italy.
CHORUS:
I know it’s only been ten days
but I am just amazed
that I know even at this time
I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine
always.
BRIDGE:
I can’t tell you why already I’ve no doubt
that our love will last as the years play out.
But I can guarantee
thirty years from now, you’ll see:
you’ll say, “Do you recall
when you said to me…?”
CHORUS:
I know it’s only been ten days
but I am just amazed
that I know even at this time
I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine
always.
