Love in the Present Tense

All I see is a silhouette Day is dawning but the sky's still dark I don't want to disturb you yet With words too raw or truths too stark Sunlight creeping over stone Birds are singing like they own the place I can't listen to you on the phone Got to look you right in the face I'll always love you in the present tense Though our past's not perfect Our future's not conditional Steam rising from your coffee cup Caressing both your face and mine Sit beside me, don't get up Everything is gonna be just fine I'll always love you in the present tense Though our past's not perfect Our future's not conditional
