[Intro]
(A bright, rhythmic acoustic guitar strumming, accompanied by a soft, whistling melody)
[Verse 1]
Golden beams cut through the white lace blinds
Leaving all the heavy dreams far behind
The kettle is singing a lazy little tune
Waking up the kitchen just a bit too soon
[Verse 2]
You’re still tangled in the sheets, half asleep
While I’m watching the shadows slowly creep
A click from the toaster, a sudden sweet surprise
Just waiting for the moment you open up your eyes
[Chorus 1]
And the toast by the morning window is burning gold
Like the warm little secret that we get to hold
With butter melting sweet, just like your sleepy smile
Let’s slice up the sunrise and just stay here a while
[Verse 3]
The scent of hot coffee drifts across the floor
We don’t need to rush out of the bedroom door
You crawl to the table with messy, bedhead hair
And suddenly there’s magic floating in the air
[Bridge]
The world outside is spinning way too fast
Chasing after things that never seem to last
But right here in the kitchen, time forgot to run
We’re just two lucky people caught up in the sun
[Chorus 2]
Now the crumbs on the morning window are shining bright
Washing away the coldness of the lonely night
With jam on your fingers and love in your eyes
This ordinary Sunday is our grandest prize
[Outro]
Take a bite of the morning, take a sip of the light
Everything we ever needed is right here in sight
Just you and me...
By the morning window.
(The acoustic guitar finishes with a single, warm strum, followed by the sound of a satisfied laugh)
