The Bait Shop Bench

[Intro]
[Verse]
Dusty boots on a wooden floor
Creakin' like before
Minnow buckets in the sink
No time to think
Morning mist across the lake
Coffee and a cake
[Pre-Chorus]
You had a crooked smile
Stayed a little while
I forgot the change
Feeling sweet and strange
[Chorus]
It’s those sun-dappled days
In a golden summer haze
Tiny moments in the light
Making everything look bright
Every joy I carry now
Started on that dock somehow
[Verse]
Old man Miller taught me well
How the rivers swell
Patience is a heavy line
Waiting for a sign
Tangled hooks and messy knots
In the parking lots
[Pre-Chorus]
Laughter in the pines
Reading secret signs
We were color-blind
Leaving the world behind
[Chorus]
It’s those sun-dappled days
In a golden summer haze
Tiny moments in the light
Making everything look bright
Every joy I carry now
Started on that dock somehow
[Bridge]
The shop is painted blue
I still see you
A simple little start
Blueprint of my heart
[Verse]
Now I’m miles away
Hear the water play
Smell of cedar and the pine
I am doing fine
Life is a collection
Of a sweet reflection
[Chorus]
It’s those sun-dappled days
In a golden summer haze
Tiny moments in the light
Making everything look bright
Every joy I carry now
Started on that dock somehow
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, those golden days
In the summer haze
Started on that dock
Watching the old clock
[Outro]
