Where the Kettle Sighs

Verse

Rain has quit its drumming on the pane

Puddles hold the last light, going grey

Branches drip in slow, uneven time

Roof still ticking, cooling from the day

Pre-Chorus

Everything that shook

Has settled soft and low

Nowhere left to go

Chorus

Where the kettle sighs

And the steam goes thin

Quiet finds its way back in

Storm has said its piece and gone

Where the kettle sighs, we carry on

Verse

Chair legs creak on floorboards, warm and worn

Two cups waiting, one still holding heat

Window fogged with breath and dimming light

Socks gone damp from puddles in the street

Pre-Chorus

Everything that shook

Has settled soft and low

Nowhere left to go

Chorus

Where the kettle sighs

And the steam goes thin

Quiet finds its way back in

Storm has said its piece and gone

Where the kettle sighs, we carry on

Bridge

Mm— the gutter's last slow drip

Mm— the porch light finds the mist

Nothing left that needs to prove

Just this

Chorus

Where the kettle sighs

And the steam goes thin

Quiet finds its way back in

Storm has said its piece and gone

Where the kettle sighs, we carry on
