One Small Thing Worth Knowing

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left the kettle by the sink Your blue cup drying on its side I stand there longer than I mean to With nothing urgent left to hide [Pre-Chorus] The morning asks for nothing grand Just both my feet upon the floor [Chorus] I’m not searching for an ending I’m searching for a reason to keep going Maybe it’s the bread still warm Maybe it’s your hand reaching for mine I don’t need the whole road shining Just one small thing worth knowing I’m not searching for an ending I’m searching for a reason to keep going [Verse 2] The neighbor’s kid has chalked a sun Across the cracked and crooked walk A little yellow, lopsided thing That makes me stop and watch awhile [Pre-Chorus] You say, “Come sit beside me here” And somehow that is quite enough [Chorus] I’m not searching for an ending I’m searching for a reason to keep going Maybe it’s the bread still warm Maybe it’s your hand reaching for mine I don’t need the whole road shining Just one small thing worth knowing I’m not searching for an ending I’m searching for a reason to keep going [Bridge] Some days the answer is a window Some days a name I get to say Some days I only make it through And let that count for today [Final Chorus] I’m not searching for an ending I’m searching for a reason to keep going Maybe it’s the bread still warm Maybe it’s your hand reaching for mine I don’t need the whole road shining Just one small thing worth knowing I’m not searching for an ending I’m searching for a reason to keep going [Outro] One small thing worth knowing One more day, and then the next
