Lyrics
Verse 1
You’re counting the speckled eggs in the wire basket
I’m just watching the way the porch light hits your sleeve
The grass is still damp enough to soak through my canvas shoes
But you haven’t noticed, and I’m not planning to leave.
Pre-Chorus
There’s a smudge of flour right beside your eyebrow
(mmh)
And the kettle’s whistling a low, steady blue
Every small thing feels like it’s waking up for the first time
Just because I’m standing here looking at you.
Chorus
It’s a Sunday morning kind of landslide
Everything green and pulling me back to life
We don’t need the big words or the heavy lifting
Just the sugar in the coffee and the way you look in my light.
Verse 2
The radio is playing something old and slightly out of tune
You’re humming along while you push the curtains wide
There’s a yellow ribbon tangled in the kitchen chair
And a whole lot of nothing we need to do outside.
Pre-Chorus
There’s a smudge of flour right beside your eyebrow
(uh-huh)
And the kettle’s whistling a low, steady blue
Every small thing feels like it’s waking up for the first time
Just because I’m standing here looking at you.
Chorus
It’s a Sunday morning kind of landslide
Everything green and pulling me back to life
We don’t need the big words or the heavy lifting
Just the sugar in the coffee and the way you look in my light.
Bridge
Maybe it’s the season, maybe it’s the way the air changed
(yeah)
But I’m finding new corners of this house to love
Like the crack in the window and the dirt on the floorboards
It’s more than enough. It’s more than enough.
Outro
Keep the basket. Keep the morning.
(mmh, just stay right there)
