[Intro]
Soft light in the kitchen, a kettle singing low
I carry your lullaby wherever I go
[Verse 1]
I learned to tie my shoes by your patient hands
And every sticky kiss lit up the darkest strands
The old chair creaks, but your stories never end
In every small thing, love teaches me to mend
[Pre-Chorus]
Time travels slow when I think of you
In your gentle weather, I find my truth
[Chorus]
Thank you for the mornings you woke with me still bloomin’
For the hands that steadied me when I was foolin’
For sacrifices whispered in the quiet of night
For love that held me close and taught me to fly
[Verse 2]
You saved me from the shadows with your warm embrace
A recipe of courage seasoned with grace
The coffee steam tilts like a soft, forgiving sun
Every ordinary moment shines when I’m your daughter, or your son
[Pre-Chorus]
Time travels slow when I think of you
In your gentle weather, I find my truth
[Chorus]
Thank you for the mornings you woke with me still bloomin’
For the hands that steadied me when I was foolin’
For sacrifices whispered in the quiet of night
For love that held me close and taught me to fly
[Bridge]
If I could fold my heart into a warm scarf you wore
I’d wrap the years around us, always wanting more
[Chorus]
Thank you for the mornings you woke with me still bloomin’
For the hands that steadied me when I was foolin’
For sacrifices whispered in the quiet of night
For love that held me close and taught me to fly
[Outro]
In every memory, I hear your lullaby and start again
A child forever grateful, carrying you within
