歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] The glass is dusty and round Sit down on the kitchen ground Plastic lids and metal tins Where the secret life begins Shake it once to hear the sound Lost things finally being found [Pre-Chorus] Warm tape hiss on the breeze Wind chimes dancing in the trees I’m just sorting through the years Wiping back the happy tears [Chorus] Oh, it’s a tiny little thing A green leaf under a string Hidden in the pearly white Tucked away and out of sight Just a secret we can keep While the neighborhood’s asleep [Post-Chorus] Keep it close, keep it near There is nothing left to fear Buttons clicking in the jar Wishing on a distant star [Verse] This one came from a king’s coat That one sailed a tiny boat She told me tales of navy blue And buttons made of morning dew A brass circle from a soldier’s vest Now it’s taking a long rest One is cracked and painted gold Stories only I’ve been told [Hook] Click, clack, pearly black Bring the old memories back Click, clack, pearly black We are never off the track [Bridge] Then I see the clover leaf Paper thin and very brief Pressed between the plastic shells Ringing all the memory bells She said luck is hard to find Unless you leave the world behind [Verse] The ice cream truck is passing by Underneath a summer sky Casio keys play a soft tune Waiting for the rising moon Jangly guitars start to swell Casting such a quiet spell [Chorus] Oh, it’s a tiny little thing A green leaf under a string Hidden in the pearly white Tucked away and out of sight Just a secret we can keep While the neighborhood’s asleep [Post-Chorus] Keep it close, keep it near There is nothing left to fear Buttons clicking in the jar Wishing on a distant star [Break] [Verse] I hold the clover to the light Everything will be alright It’s a charm she left for me Underneath the family tree Now the jar is full of grace I can see her smiling face [Outro]
