The Card in the Box

[Intro]
[Verse]
Back on the gravel road
Where the heavy cedar bowed
Porch light is glowing gold
Stories left untold
Suitcase on the floor
Walking through the door
[Pre-Chorus]
Found the old ornament box
Turning back the heavy clocks
Found your card from way back
Hidden in the velvet stack
[Chorus]
It’s a quiet kind of magic
Nothing loud or tragic
Just the snow on the glass
Watching the hours pass
With you by my side
Nowhere left to hide
Just a simple holiday
In the most perfect way
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, the card in the box)
(Ooh, the turn of the locks)
(Ooh, the card in the box)
(Ooh, the turn of the locks)
[Verse]
You knock upon the wood
Just like I knew you would
Steam from the cocoa cup
Never gonna give it up
Flour on your sweater sleeve
Reasons to never leave
[Chorus]
It’s a quiet kind of magic
Nothing loud or tragic
Just the snow on the glass
Watching the hours pass
With you by my side
Nowhere left to hide
Just a simple holiday
In the most perfect way
[Bridge]
Glitter on the kitchen floor
We don't need the fancy store
Just the strings and the keys
Memories in the breeze
Hand in hand, heart to heart
This is where the stories start
[Verse]
Sugar stars and frosting white
Dancing in the candle light
You look at me and smile
Stay a little while
The piano plays a song
Where we both belong
No more winter chill
Time is standing still
[Chorus]
It’s a quiet kind of magic
Nothing loud or tragic
Just the snow on the glass
Watching the hours pass
With you by my side
Nowhere left to hide
Just a simple holiday
In the most perfect way
[Outro]
