Later Chapters

[Intro] [Verse 1] The coffee's cold, the pictures faded on the shelf Two separate stories written, lived out by ourselves Long roads traveled, vows once spoken clear and true Reached quiet endings, like the morning dew Empty spaces where the laughter used to ring Learning how to navigate this different kind of spring [Verse 2] Then a glance across a room, a hesitant hello Shared histories whispered, letting feelings slowly grow No rush of youthful passion, blind and b*****g fast But something deeper built to surely, gently last Two years of finding rhythm, step by careful step Building something beautiful where loneliness once crept [Chorus] Oh, Tubba and Heather, writing later chapters now With silver in your hair and wisdom on your brow After the long goodbyes, the turning of life's page You found a second chance, defying bitter age It's never really over, love can bloom anew Tubba and Heather, this chapter's meant for you [Verse 3] You know the weight of promises, the work that love demands You carry all those lessons held within your weathered hands The patience born of knowing sunshine follows rain The strength to start believing once, and once again Your laughter sounds familiar, like a favorite song A melody you thought was lost, but you were both so wrong [Chorus] Oh, Tubba and Heather, writing later chapters now With silver in your hair and wisdom on your brow After the long goodbyes, the turning of life's page You found a second chance, defying bitter age It's never really over, love can bloom anew Tubba and Heather, this chapter's meant for you [Bridge] The past is not forgotten, it shaped who you became But now you walk together, fanning love's steady flame A different kind of fire, warm and bright and deep A promise softly whispered, secrets you will keep No need for grand illusions, just the comfort you have found Standing on familiar ground, on solid, sacred ground [Chorus] Oh, Tubba and Heather, writing later chapters now With silver in your hair and wisdom on your brow After the long goodbyes, the turning of life's page You found a second chance, defying bitter age It's never really over, love can bloom anew Tubba and Heather, this chapter's meant for you [Outro]
