TITLE: HER APRON'S ON THE HOOK
DJ DR LOVE — 007 FM

[Intro — Female, Low Sung]
Her apron's on the hook…
I haven't moved it yet.

[Verse — Intimate Chest Voice]
Got her old mixing bowl, got the oven warm,
Can't remember if she covered it before.
My sister tastes the dressing, doesn't say a word,
Then we laugh because we know how she'd have stirred.

My baby finds me standing in the doorway,
Asks me if I need a little air.
Thought I had to hold this house together,
He says, "You don't have to stand alone in there."

[Chorus — Soaring Sustained Belt]
Don't ask me to stop missing her,
Just hold me while the record plays.
Let me put my cheek against you,
Let me have a softer place.
I can love this room around me
And still wish she could walk in.

[Head Voice]
Stay close—

[Low Chest]
Till I can breathe again.

[16-Bar Female Rap — Restrained, Reflective]
Found a little grocery list tucked into her book,
Same handwriting I've been scared to stop and look.
Said she needed butter, had my name beside the bread,
Probably meant to call me, all these things inside my head.
Everybody got a memory, everybody got a taste,
Trying to find her kitchen in whatever's on the plate.
I was measuring the pepper like a test I had to pass,
Then my sister made a joke and I could hear my mother laugh.
No, it didn't sound exactly, but it loosened up the room,
Let a little daylight find a place beside the gloom.
Baby took the heavy pan before I had to ask,
Said he'd do the dishes, let me leave another task.
I can let somebody help me without losing what she taught,
I can keep her near without keeping every pot.
So I'm setting out the glasses, letting people come inside,
Got a little of her courage and a place to put my pride.

[Soft Turntable Transition — Original Wordless Vocal]

[Bridge — Low to Belt]
I don't have to choose between
Being grateful, being blue.
There is room to love who's with me,
Room to miss her, too.

[High]
Let the whole song play—

[Low]
I'm staying right here.

[Final Chorus]
Don't ask me to stop missing her,
Just hold me while the record plays.
When I laugh, it doesn't mean I've lost her.
When I cry, don't turn away.

[Outro — Low Spoken]
Leave the apron where it is.
But… you can help me set the table.

[Cello. Silence. Applause.]
