Paper Cup Morning

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The daily comes in folds On my front step cold Same black print, same stain Same rain on the lane I sip from a chipped white cup Try to wake the day up But your name keeps walking in Like it pays rent within [Pre-Chorus] One more page And I’m gone Then your face Sings along [Chorus] The daily, the daily Pulls me back to you The daily, the daily Same old things feel new The daily, the daily I read between the lines You’re in the small print On my mind [Verse 2] The corner store still owes me change The bus stop glass looks just the same But every headline hits like rain When I catch your shadow in the frame Your coffee ring on yesterday Still circling what I can’t say I fold the truth and tuck it down Then you turn up all over town [Pre-Chorus] One more page And I’m gone Then your face Sings along [Chorus] The daily, the daily Pulls me back to you The daily, the daily Same old things feel new The daily, the daily I read between the lines You’re in the small print On my mind [Bridge] Maybe love don’t need a flash Maybe it lives in what we stash In the quiet, in the cracks In the way you call me back [Chorus] The daily, the daily Pulls me back to you The daily, the daily Same old things feel new The daily, the daily I read between the lines You’re in the small print On my mind [Outro] On my mind On my mind The daily The daily
