[Intro]
Soft morning light on the kitchen clock
teaspoons clink, a gentle knock
[Verse 1]
We wash the dishes in a steady rain of sighs
fold the towels, dust the shelves, time answers our eyes
Every small habit writes our names in steam on glass
a quiet chorus of déjà vu that somehow lasts
[Pre-Chorus]
If I forget, you remind me with your smile
in the hum of routine, we stay a little while
[Chorus]
In the ticking of the everyday, we find our way
hand in hand through ordinary days
the simple acts, the soft agreements we keep
building a history in the quiet, sweet and deep
[Verse 2]
We sort the mail by memory, file the days away
brew the same coffee, listen to the kettle say
the same old jokes when the kettle sings its steam
we drift in cadence to the rhythm of our dream
[Pre-Chorus]
If I forget, you remind me with your smile
in the hum of routine, we stay a little while
[Chorus]
In the ticking of the everyday, we find our way
hand in hand through ordinary days
the simple acts, the soft agreements we keep
building a history in the quiet, sweet and deep
[Bridge]
Not grand, not loud, just us in the soft grey dawn
the clock keeps tally of every yawn
[Chorus]
In the ticking of the everyday, we find our way
hand in hand through ordinary days
the simple acts, the soft agreements we keep
building a history in the quiet, sweet and deep
[Outro]
Small rituals, large love, in the steady glow
home is where the quiet numbers grow
