You always got up early 

Before the sun would rise 

Hand me a fresh cup of coffee! 

As I rubbed sleep from my eyes! 

Then you'd find my favorite chair 

Drag it to a sunny place! 

That simple act of sweetness 

Felt like such a warm embrace! 

Chorus: 

And we'll always have that little patch of sun! 

You seemed to find it even on a cloudy day 

You often found the light when there was none! 

And we'll always - have that little patch of sun! 

Now your light is constant 

As the brightest living star! 

You guide my steps with purest light 

I won't say au revoir! 

(Chorus) 

Bridge: 

I wish that you could join me 

I know you have to go! 

I'll just sit here in the sun 

And drink my cuppa Joe - you know 

(Chorus)

Sweet, folky ballad for departed love one, but "We'll always have that little patch of sun". (3:12)
