She Mends His Shirt

Verse 1

Sunday morning I look across the street

Watch her pour his coffee just the way he likes

He reads the paper she hums a little tune

Been five years now and she still lights the candles every night

Pre-Chorus

And I see the way he looks at her

Like she hung the moon up in the sky

Every morning somehow it's brand new

Every evening I wonder why

Chorus

She takes his hand

He holds her close

Day by day the fire only grows

Nobody's gonna stand between

The way she cares and the way he feels

He falls a little deeper every dawn

While she mends his shirt and sways along

Verse 2

Tuesday out on the porch he's fixin' the fence

She brings him lemonade and wipes his brow

He laughs and pulls her in for one more dance

She rolls her eyes but she lets him have it now

Pre-Chorus

And I can tell by the way she stays

When the world comes knockin' at their door

He'd move a mountain barefoot all the way

Just to set her feet on solid shore

Chorus

She takes his hand

He holds her close

Day by day the fire only grows

Nobody's gonna stand between

The way she cares and the way he feels

He falls a little deeper every dawn

While she mends his shirt and sways along

Bridge

Some folks say love fades with the years

But I watch them prove the rumors wrong

She mends the worn and heals the broke

He sings her name like the sweetest song

Chorus

She takes his hand

He holds her close

Day by day the fire only grows

Nobody's gonna stand between

The way she cares and the way he feels

He falls a little deeper every dawn

While she mends his shirt and sways along

Outro

He falls a little deeper

Every single dawn

Yeah he falls a little deeper

Mm mm
