Little Button Moon

Verse 1

Found a button on the floor

Blue thread hanging from the seam

In my pocket, in my hand

It felt heavier than it seemed

It came from some old coat

Left on a train in rain

One tiny circle, one lost life

And I kept it anyway

Pre-Chorus

Now I'm thinking

What else slips away?

Keys and names

And the words we never say

Chorus

Little button moon

Turn me around

Little button moon

Don’t let me down

Round and small

Still you shine through

Little button moon

I’m keeping you

Verse 2

I took it home in my palm

Set it by the sink

Next to coins and a receipt

And a cracked red rubber ring

My room looked like a map

Of things I meant to keep

But that tiny blue moon

Sat there brighter than me

Pre-Chorus

And I’m thinking

Maybe that’s the clue

A broken little thing

Can still pull me through

Chorus

Little button moon

Turn me around

Little button moon

Don’t let me down

Round and small

Still you shine through

Little button moon

I’m keeping you

Bridge

If I lose the whole day

If the ceiling falls in

I’ll follow that blue thread

Back to where I begin

Chorus

Little button moon

Turn me around

Little button moon

Don’t let me down

Round and small

Still you shine through

Little button moon

I’m keeping you

Outro

Blue thread

Small moon

I found you

I found you
