03 · ROOM FOR TWO
Slow on a Sunday
A patch of sun, a stolen corner of toast, and a day without plans settle into an easy soul-pop groove.
Original lyrics
Verse 1You wore my oldest sweater
The one with paint upon the sleeve
The sun was on your shoulder
And there was nowhere we should be
You turned the radio down
To hear the people on the street
Then reached across the counter
And stole the corner of my toast
Pre-ChorusThe week keeps running through our minds
But this small hour is yours and mine
ChorusSlow on a Sunday
Let the whole town run
We've got an open window
And a little patch of sun
Slow on a Sunday
Nothing we need to chase
I could know you for a lifetime
And still find something new each day
Verse 2We missed the morning market
You said the flowers could wait
I tried to fix the record
You danced around the skipping phrase
We made a list of places
Then put the pencil down
The map stayed on the table
We never made it out of town
Pre-ChorusWe spend our weeks on moving trains
Today I'm glad we missed this one again
ChorusSlow on a Sunday
Let the whole town run
We've got an open window
And a little patch of sun
Slow on a Sunday
Nothing we need to chase
I could know you for a lifetime
And still find something new each day
BridgeYour laugh comes early
You know how the story ends
I tell it anyway
To hear that sound again
Final ChorusSlow on a Sunday
Let the daylight fall
We've got each other's company
And no great plan at all
Slow on a Sunday
Nothing we need to chase
I could know you for a lifetime
And still find something new each day
OutroSlow on a Sunday
With you, with you
