Still Early Married

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Your suitcase still leans by the bedroom wall Two coffee cups, one chipped, one tall We’re learning which side of the bed gets cold And how your stories change when they’re told [Pre-Chorus] The hallway clock keeps missing a beat You steal my socks, I take your seat [Chorus] We’re early married, still finding our way Making a home out of ordinary days Your name beside mine on the bills in the drawer A key on the hook, your shoes by the door No grand design, no map to carry Just you and me, still early married [Verse 2] We burned the first toast, laughed at the smoke You fixed the loose hinge; I lost the note A rainy Sunday, your hand on my knee The whole small room felt wide as the sea [Pre-Chorus] We’re learning the pause before words get sharp How to say sorry, how to restart [Chorus] We’re early married, still finding our way Making a home out of ordinary days Your name beside mine on the bills in the drawer A key on the hook, your shoes by the door No grand design, no map to carry Just you and me, still early married [Bridge] Someday these little things will feel like years The lopsided shelf, the grocery lists, the tears But tonight your shoulder fits against my own And every new beginning feels like home [Final Chorus] We’re early married, still finding our way Making a life in the small things we say Your name beside mine, your coat next to mine Two mugs in the morning, one table to dine No grand design, no map to carry Just you and me, still early married [Outro] Your shoes by the door Your hand finding mine Still early married And doing just fine
