Write folk-pop/indie folk lyrics for a warm unadorned female vocal, in the vein of Phoebe Bridgers, Big Thief and Joni Mitchell. Music parameters: 78 BPM, G major, core instrumentation of fingerpicked acoustic guitar, soft sustained piano, muted upright bass, subtle brushed snare, faint layered harmonium instead of banjo. Thematically center on the quiet joy of finding an old handwritten grocery list your late grandma left tucked in a vintage recipe book, full of soft introspective imagery of flour dust on kitchen windows, sun-bleached lemon rinds, and her hand-scrawled note "add extra honey for the grandkids". Convey tender, bittersweet peace, like sipping chamomile tea while rain taps on the kitchen window at dusk. Keep lyrics intimate and conversational, like sharing a soft secret with a close friend.
歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] The rain is tapping on the pane Washing out the day’s long stain I pull the yellowed binder down Wearing your old cotton gown The kitchen smells of tea and dust In things that we can always trust [Verse] A slip of paper hits the floor Tucked beside the pantry door Your cursive leans a little right Catching in the fading light I see the list you left behind A map of what I need to find [Chorus] Oh, it’s a shopping list Of the things that I have missed Lemon rinds and heavy cream Waking from a quiet dream And there in the corner, small and sweet A note to make the day complete Add extra honey for the grandkids Underneath the jar lids [Post-Chorus] Just like you said In the book I read Keep the kitchen warm Safe from every storm [Verse] Sun-bleached rinds upon the wood Everything is understood The harmonium hums a low sound While the twilight settles round I measure out the golden pour Just like you did years before [Bridge] Chamomile and steam arise I can almost see your eyes It’s a secret held in ink Giving me the time to think That love is just a grocery line Written in a hand like mine [Chorus] Oh, it’s a shopping list Of the things that I have missed Lemon rinds and heavy cream Waking from a quiet dream And there in the corner, small and sweet A note to make the day complete Add extra honey for the grandkids Underneath the jar lids [Post-Chorus] Just like you said In the book I read Keep the kitchen warm Safe from every storm [Outro]
