Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Woke up to the same old ceiling
Bills on the table
News in the hall
Coffee in a chipped white mug
Still tastes like I've got it all

I've cried in the bathroom mirror
Held my breath through bad nights too
But every scar I ever carried
Led me closer here to you

[Chorus]
Life is a gift
Not a guarantee
Every little heartbeat
Every ordinary scene
I'll take the highs
I'll take the hurt
All the ashes
All the dirt
'Cause in the end it's worth it for love
Yeah
In the end it's worth it for love (oh-oh)

[Verse 2]
Some days it feels like climbing
With both knees shaking
Hands all torn
But on that hill at Sunday sunset
We laughed like we'd never been worn

We've lost people
We've lost patience
We've had nights we almost gave up
Then your hand found mine in the darkness
And suddenly there was enough

[Chorus]
Life is a gift
Not a guarantee
Every little heartbeat
Every ordinary scene
I'll take the highs
I'll take the hurt
All the ashes
All the dirt
'Cause in the end it's worth it for love
Yeah
In the end it's worth it for love

[Bridge]
So here's to the days that broke us open (hey)
To every unanswered plea
They carved the space inside our hearts
For a bigger kind of peace

[Chorus]
Life is a gift
Not a guarantee
Every single sunrise
Every breath we get for free
I'll take the highs
I'll take the hurt
All the ashes
All the dirt
'Cause in the end it's worth it for love
Yeah
In the end
It's worth it for love
