歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] The cedar door swings open slow To where the quiet shadows grow Sun-faded linen, folded neat The smell of summer, bittersweet I trace the path of yellowed lace Within this small and sacred space My fingers find a hidden seam A fragment of a waking dream [Pre-Chorus] A silver needle, sharp and fine Connecting your pulse into mine The monograms are raised and cold A story that was never told [Chorus] Oh, the flour on your hands Like the shifting desert sands We were baking in the sun Before the day was ever done Love was in the rising bread In all the things we never said Just the humming of the stove In our secret lemon grove [Post-Chorus] Softly now Show me how To keep the light Inside the white [Verse] I find a square of dusty blue That smells of lavender and you The edges frayed by passing years To wipe away the phantom tears You moved with such a gentle grace No hurry in your quiet pace You taught me how to sift and pour Upon the old linoleum floor [Pre-Chorus] The light is gold upon the wall I hear the ghost of summer call Your initials stitched in green The bravest love I’ve ever seen [Chorus] Oh, the flour on your hands Like the shifting desert sands We were baking in the sun Before the day was ever done Love was in the rising bread In all the things we never said Just the humming of the stove In our secret lemon grove [Bridge] The string trio plays a sigh Underneath the pale July No grand parade or loud remark Just a candle in the dark We didn't need the words to bloom To fill the corners of the room I hold the fabric to my chest And let the weary memory rest [Breakdown] Fold it once Fold it twice Sugar, yeast And heavy spice [Chorus] Oh, the flour on your hands Like the shifting desert sands We were baking in the sun Before the day was ever done Love was in the rising bread In all the things we never said Just the humming of the stove In our secret lemon grove [Post-Chorus] Softly now Show me how To keep the light Inside the white [Hook] It’s in the thread It’s in the bread It’s in the things We never said [Outro]
