Aroma Of Your Smile

[Verse 1]

Didn’t sleep a wink

Counted cracks in the ceiling

Not sheep

Watched the gray turn gold

While the kettle began to breathe

[Pre-Chorus]

Mug on the counter

Your chair pulled out

I set the table like a quiet vow

Steam drawing halos in the morning air

I’m wide awake

And you’re still there

[Chorus]

I prepared your favorite breakfast

Just the way you like

Let the coffee find you slowly

As it fills the silent light

It’s my turn to do the waiting

At the doorway

All this while

For you to follow that warm

Sweet trail

Till I find that smile

[Verse 2]

Toast pops

Little jump

My hands shake

But my heart feels still

Jam on the knife

I trace your name where the glass fogs up on the sill

[Pre-Chorus]

Your sweater’s hanging on the back of the chair

I smooth the sleeves like you’re already there

Clock keeps ticking

Soft and slow

I’ve never felt this present

This close

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

[low vocal register]

Every morning you pulled me from my dreams

With laughter

With small routines

Today the sun waits on my side

I get to be the one

Bringing you to the light

[Chorus]
