Amber Light & Chipped Mugs

[Intro]
[Verse]
The kettle starts to hum
My heavy heart is numb
No, that was yesterday
The shadows moved away
A chipped ceramic rim
The light is pouring in
I see you standing there
With sunlight in your hair
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s a slow kind of grace
In this familiar space
No need for any sound
Our feet are on the ground
[Chorus]
Oh, it’s the quiet kind
The peace I thought I’d never find
Just the steam and the tea
And you right next to me
In the amber afternoon
Not a moment too soon
We are breathing soft and deep
Promises we finally keep
[Post-Chorus]
Soft and deep
Promises we keep
Yeah, it’s the quiet kind
The peace I finally find
[Verse]
The week was long and cold
A story often told
But here the curtains sway
In a pale and dusty gray
Turning gold at the edge
On the window ledge
You don't have to speak
To kiss me on the cheek
[Chorus]
Oh, it’s the quiet kind
The peace I thought I’d never find
Just the steam and the tea
And you right next to me
In the amber afternoon
Not a moment too soon
We are breathing soft and deep
Promises we finally keep
[Bridge]
I used to fear the dark
Waiting for a spark
But now the glow is steady
I think I’m finally ready
To let the mourning go
And let the garden grow
In the silence we share
I find my morning prayer
[Chorus]
Oh, it’s the quiet kind
The peace I thought I’d never find
Just the steam and the tea
And you right next to me
In the amber afternoon
Not a moment too soon
We are breathing soft and deep
Promises we finally keep
[Outro]
