Every Small Tomorrow

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left your yellow cup Beside the kitchen sink A little crescent of tea Still waiting on the rim I carried it to the window Where the basil leans for rain And heard the morning asking To begin again [Pre-Chorus] No grand parade, no perfect plan Just your hand finding my hand [Chorus] Lálala, come a little closer Lálala, let the day unfold Lálala, every small tomorrow Feels warmer when you hold me close [Verse 2] The market man remembers You like the softer pears He wraps them in brown paper And sends a smile upstairs We take the long way homeward Past the bakery door You break the crust between us And I don't need much more [Pre-Chorus] No grand parade, no perfect plan Just your hand finding my hand [Chorus] Lálala, come a little closer Lálala, let the day unfold Lálala, every small tomorrow Feels warmer when you hold me close [Bridge] If the kettle starts to whistle If the bus is running late We'll make a little shelter Out of whatever waits [Final Chorus] Lálala, come a little closer Lálala, let the day unfold Lálala, every small tomorrow Feels warmer when you hold me close Lálala, stay a little longer Lálala, don't hurry home Lálala, every little moment Turns into a place we know [Outro] Lálala, lálala Stay until the tea grows cold
