windows fog before the sun does (versie 2)

Verse

Kettle ticking, steam on the glass

Yesterday's mug still warm from the last

Sock feet on the floorboards, soft creak in the hall

Morning comes slow, no rush at all

Radiator hums a tune half asleep

Blanket on the chair, folds in a heap

Light comes sideways, thin and pale

Traces a line on the water pail

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know where this day is going

Don't much care, just let it drift

Nothing here that needs my knowing

Just the fog and the window's lift

Chorus

Windows fog before the sun does

Before the coffee, before the noise

Let it drift, however far it wants to

I'm not chasing, I'm just floating with it

Verse

Paper cup rings on the windowsill

Old clock ticking, taking its time, still

Dust in the light like it's floating on air

Nowhere to be, so I just stay there

Neighbor's dog barks twice, then it's quiet again

Pages turning slow, past nine, past ten

Nothing's urgent, nothing's due

Just the gray outside turning to blue

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know where this day is going

Don't much care, just let it drift

Nothing here that needs my knowing

Just the fog and the window's lift

Chorus

Windows fog before the sun does

Before the coffee, before the noise

Let it drift, however far it wants to

I'm not chasing, I'm just floating with it

Bridge

Maybe letting go feels like this

A held breath turning into mist

No map, no clock, no need to steer

Just the fog and the calm right here

Chorus

Windows fog before the sun does

Before the coffee, before the noise

Let it drift, however far it wants to

I'm not chasing, I'm just floating with it
