[Verse 1] [Stylaphone fades in with a goofy little melody, happy and energetic] F-F-Found a peppermint in my coat Wrapped in paper, cracked and old I was late, you called my phone Then I laughed, I was still at home Pocket in my jeans got light K-Keys and lint and a slip of lime Tiny thing in a winter storm Somehow kept my whole day warm [Pre-Chorus] [Key: A and b] I-I held that little mint like gold O-One small spark in the cold You said, come on, don’t go And I said, wait [Chorus] P-Pocketful of peppermint Keeps me moving, keeps me lit Pocketful of peppermint One sweet hit, I’m back in it (peppermint) P-Pocketful of peppermint I take a breath and bite the risk [Verse 2] Walked past the shop with the red door Saw your scarf on the candy store floor You were there with your sleeves rolled high Cherry stain on your grin, no lie W-We split one mint on the curb Talked in circles, lost our words Sticky shoes and a paper crown I was up, then I came back down [Pre-Chorus] You held my hand and squeezed it twice Like a match in the dark at night You said, come on, don’t go And I said, wait [Chorus] P-Pocketful of peppermint Keeps me moving, keeps me lit Pocketful of peppermint One sweet hit, I’m back in it (peppermint) Pocketful of peppermint I take a breath and bite the risk [Bridge] Now I keep one in my coat For the days I start to fold When the world gets sharp and thin I can taste you again (again, again) [Final Chorus] Pocketful of peppermint Keeps me moving, keeps me lit Pocketful of peppermint One sweet hit, I’m back in it (peppermint) Pocketful of peppermint I take a breath and bite the risk Pocketful of peppermint Little spark and I’m in it
