In Ordinary Days

Текст песни

[Verse 1] You leave your tea beside the sink And fold the paper where I read You know the names of all my plants And turn them toward the afternoon [Pre-Chorus] When I lose track of what I meant You wait and let the silence pass [Chorus] I love you in the little things The coat you drape across my chair The way you ask if I got home And save the last ripe pear No grand parade could say it right No perfect line could make it true So here’s my heart, in ordinary days Still choosing you [Verse 2] You keep the ticket from that train The one we missed by half a breath We found a bakery down the block And laughed until the rain let up [Pre-Chorus] You make a room feel easy to be in You make the hard days lose their weight [Chorus] I love you in the little things The coat you drape across my chair The way you ask if I got home And save the last ripe pear No grand parade could say it right No perfect line could make it true So here’s my heart, in ordinary days Still choosing you [Bridge] If all we have is Tuesday night And two clean cups, and one old song Then let the years keep finding us Right where we belong [Final Chorus] I love you in the little things Your sleepy smile, your steady hand The way you make a place for me In every changing plan No grand parade could say it right But every day I’ll show you true With all my heart, in ordinary days I keep choosing you [Outro] In ordinary days I keep choosing you
