Lint and Longing

[Intro]
[Verse]
Sweater sleeves smell like dust
In this quiet place I trust
Folding knit and faded blue
Thinking back to days with you
Dryer hums a steady low
Watching all the colors glow
[Chorus]
Spinning round in golden light
Lost within the rainy night
Three years gone and miles apart
Static clinging to my heart
Wait for the cycle to end
Missing my oldest friend
[Post-Chorus]
Warm wool on my skin
Where do I begin?
[Verse]
Reached inside a denim fold
Found a story never told
Movie ticket, blurred and gray
From a cold and Tuesday play
You were laughing at the screen
Happiest I’d ever seen
[Hook]
Tumble dry low
Letting it go
Tumble dry low
Softly we grow
[Bridge]
Rain streaks on the glass
Watching minutes pass
Foggy windows hide the street
Keeping in the dryer heat
Woody bass and vinyl hiss
Small things that I always miss
[Verse]
Empty chairs and plastic bins
Where the lonely night begins
Stacking shirts in neat rows
That is how the feeling goes
I don't mind the quiet now
Making peace with it somehow
[Chorus]
Spinning round in golden light
Lost within the rainy night
Three years gone and miles apart
Static clinging to my heart
Wait for the cycle to end
Missing my oldest friend
[Outro]
