Two Sugars

V5.5

[Intro: solo piano, gentle reverb, 8 bars] [Verse 1] You always liked it sweet, two sugars and a smile I liked mine dark and plain, we laughed about our styles Funny how the smallest things remind me of your face An empty chair across from me, an ordinary place The napkin holder's crooked like you used to leave it so You'd stack them into tiny towers, watch them overflow I never thought I'd miss the mess you left behind But here I am with all this space and you on my mind [Pre-Chorus] It's not the big things that I'm missing now It's the little ones I can't shake somehow [Chorus] Two sugars in the silence, stirring memories around Your voice still echoes softly, such a gentle sound I don't need you to be here, but I wish you were Two sugars in the silence, everything's a blur [Verse 2] The rain outside is tapping like a slow familiar song The kind we used to hum when nothing felt so wrong You'd fog the window up and draw a little heart I'd roll my eyes but inside you were tearing me apart The waitress asks me if I'm waiting here for someone else I shake my head and smile and keep it to myself She brings the same thing that you used to always get A warm reminder I'm not ready to forget [Pre-Chorus] It's not the big things that I'm missing now It's the little ones I can't shake somehow [Chorus] Two sugars in the silence, stirring memories around Your voice still echoes softly, such a gentle sound I don't need you to be here, but I wish you were Two sugars in the silence, everything's a blur [Bridge] I wonder if you still go to that place on fifth The one with crooked paintings and the broken clocks Do you ever sit and wonder, do you ever drift Back to Sunday mornings and our aimless walks I'm not waiting, I'm not hoping, I'm not holding on I'm just sitting with the echoes of a song that's gone But if you ever find your way back to this door I'll have two sugars waiting, just like before [Chorus] Two sugars in the silence, stirring memories around Your voice still echoes softly, such a gentle sound I don't need you to be here, but I wish you were Two sugars in the silence, everything's a blur [Outro: solo piano, fading vocals] Two sugars… just two sugars… And a little bit of you… Stirring memories around… Such a gentle sound…
