The Blue Receipt

[Intro]
[Verse]
Silk scarves in lavender hue
Cream walls and nothing to do
Dust motes are dancing for two
Golden light pouring right through
[Verse]
Found in a pocket of lace
Blue ink I'm starting to trace
Two tiny cups in a place
Lost in the curve of your face
[Pre-Chorus]
The melody starts to swell
A story I'm starting to tell
I know the feeling so well
Under the afternoon spell
[Chorus]
The quiet weight of the small
The echo of steps in the hall
A receipt from a day in the fall
I can't help but cherish it all
Yes I cherish it all
[Post-Chorus]
Folding the silk once again
Tracing the blue with a pen
[Break]
[Verse]
Rain taps the garret so light
Tucking the memory in tight
Was it a Tuesday or night?
Everything felt so right
[Pre-Chorus]
The melody starts to swell
A story I'm starting to tell
I know the feeling so well
Under the afternoon spell
[Chorus]
The quiet weight of the small
The echo of steps in the hall
A receipt from a day in the fall
I can't help but cherish it all
Yes I cherish it all
[Bridge]
Bowed bass is humming a low
Watching the city lights glow
Where did the summer time go?
I guess that I'll never know
But I won't let it go
[Chorus]
The quiet weight of the small
The echo of steps in the hall
A receipt from a day in the fall
I can't help but cherish it all
Yes I cherish it all
[Outro]
