New Normal

We used to stay up talking until 2 AM
Just a couple kids, young and carefree
That was back when both of us could still sleep in
It’s funny how it feels like ancient history

We’d listen to old records in our living room
Turn it up and feel the wood floor shaking
We didn’t know how quickly we would trade that tune
For the sound of lullabies and babies

Ooh, it’s a new normal
Change is coming to the old routine
Ooh, it’s a new normal
A different season, but the same dream

We brought her home when she was only two weeks old
Questions and confusion started swirling
We didn’t know how much that extra chromosome
Would become an unexpected blessing

Ooh, it’s a new normal
Change is coming to the old routine
Ooh, it’s a new normal
A different season, but the same dream

When I look back, I see
All these changes are changing me
And every day I’m learning how to love
And I’m hoping that becomes

My new normal
Change is coming to the old routine
Ooh, it’s a new normal
A different season, but the same old dream
Ooh, it’s a new normal
Change is coming to the old routine
Ooh, it’s a new normal
A different season, but the same dream
