The Grain of It All

Verse 1

Sunday noon

Shadows sliding on the hardwood

Watching water boil

Waiting for the steam to rise

Empty chair

Sitting by the counter top

Half a page is filled

Tryna catch the morning in my eyes

Pre-Chorus

Tracing lines along the grain

Staring at the glass

Maybe it was just the rain

Hoping it would pass

Chorus

Give it time

Let the hours melt away

Give it time

Nothing left for us to say

Give it time

Maybe we can find a way

Just give it time

Verse 2

Dusty shelves

Keeping every single secret

Stones inside my pocket

Heavy like a winter coat

Cold air

Coming through the window pane

Tracing every word

Writing every single thing I wrote

Pre-Chorus

Tracing lines along the grain

Staring at the glass

Maybe it was just the rain

Hoping it would pass

Chorus

Give it time

Let the hours melt away

Give it time

Nothing left for us to say

Give it time

Maybe we can find a way

Just give it time

Bridge

One minute I am fine

One minute I am shaking

One minute I am losing my mind

But I know that the cycle is breaking

Chorus

Give it time

Let the hours melt away

Give it time

Nothing left for us to say

Give it time

Maybe we can find a way

Just give it time
