Lyrics

[Intro]
[Verse]
Found it on the city bus
Blue cover covered in dust
Library stamp says it’s late
Maybe it was just fate?
I took it home to my room
To watch the garden bloom (bloom)
[Pre-Chorus]
I didn't mean to keep it, really
Is your handwriting always curly?
You liked the part about the sea
That’s my favorite part, see?
I should walk to the desk
But I’m a nervous mess (oops)
[Chorus]
Oh, mystery friend in the ink
You make me stop and think
With your clover pressed in green
The prettiest thing I’ve seen
Are you looking for this book?
Or did you leave it for a look?
[Verse]
You circled a typo on page ten
With a scratchy ballpoint pen
You wrote "Haha, so true"
Now I feel like I know you
A coffee stain on the side
Where a little secret might hide
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m rambling to my cat again
About a stranger I call a friend
I wonder if you like tea
Or if you’re awkward like me?
I’m standing by the library door
But I can't walk across the floor
[Chorus]
Oh, mystery friend in the ink
You make me stop and think
With your clover pressed in green
The prettiest thing I’ve seen
Are you looking for this book?
Or did you leave it for a look?
[Bridge]
I put on my yellow coat
I wrote you a tiny note
But I tore it into bits
My courage always quits
Walking past the return slot
Should I give it back or not?
[Verse]
Sun hits the kitchen floor
Leaning against the door
Are you at the shelf?
Talking to your own self?
Looking for the blue spine
While it's currently in mine (sorry)
[Chorus]
Oh, mystery friend in the ink
You make me stop and think
With your clover pressed in green
The prettiest thing I’ve seen
Are you looking for this book?
Or did you leave it for a look?
[Post-Chorus]
(Mmm, mmm)
Just a stranger's book
(Mmm, mmm)
Maybe I'll return it soon
(Mmm, mmm)
Under the paper moon
(Maybe tomorrow)
[Outro]
