[Verse 1] You set the tray by the bed Eggs like a boot camp spread You move through the room so neat Like a marching line of heat I laugh at your bad, bad joke You grin while the floorboards soak That ceiling seam starts to weep And we both just watch it creep [Pre-Chorus] Tap, tap, tap in the hall Water finds every wall You say, “We’ll get through tonight” Then you wink and dim the light [Chorus] Supper in bed, supper in bed Five gallon bucket by the bed Supper in bed, supper in bed We let the evening slip instead Supper in bed, supper in bed Five gallon bucket by the bed Laughing hard as the room goes cold Supper in bed, and we don’t fold [Verse 2] You cook like a field camp queen Pot lids clank in a silver sheen Salt on the counter, boots by the mat You serve it up and that’s that The leak drops in a steady beat We count each splash like a secret cheat Then the fog rolls soft down the lane And your hand finds mine again [Pre-Chorus] The windows blur, the porch goes dim Horns call out from far and thin You say, “Look, there goes the night” And I say, “Hold me tight” [Chorus] Supper in bed, supper in bed Five gallon bucket by the bed Supper in bed, supper in bed We let the evening slip instead Supper in bed, supper in bed Five gallon bucket by the bed Laughing hard as the room goes cold Supper in bed, and we don’t fold [Bridge] No star up there to keep Just that leak and your slow sleep Fog on the glass, hush in the trees You and me, and nothing to leave [Final Chorus] Supper in bed, supper in bed Five gallon bucket by the bed Supper in bed, supper in bed We let the evening slip instead Supper in bed, supper in bed Five gallon bucket by the bed Laughing hard as the room goes cold Supper in bed, and we don’t fold [Outro] Into the foggy night Horns off in the darkness Not a star to be seen tonight Still, you make it feel like home
