[Slow, casual acoustic strumming]

[Verse 1]
[Weary, warm baritone]
Thirty years of coffee for two
Now the pot is half-full and the morning is blue
I sat in the chair where I always sit
Waiting for a heart that was ready to quit
The house is too big and the walls are too bare
I keep reaching for shadows that aren't even there
But then I notice the dust on the shelf
And realize I’m finally home by myself

[Chorus]
[Hook]
[Storytelling vibe]

I’m surrendering now to the empty space
I’m finding the man behind the face
The bed is wide and the clock is slow
But I’m learning things I didn't know
It started in sorrow for a bitter term
But the world is turning and I’m standing firm.
[Refrain]
[Gentle guitar picking]
I’m doin’ alright
Yeah I’m doin’ alright

[Verse 2]

I went to the market and bought what I like
I took a long ride on my old worn out bike
No one to tell me I’m staying out late
No one to measure the food on my plate
The closet is half-empty but I feel so light
I don't have to argue to win every night
I’m waking up early just to watch the sky
With no one to ask me the where or the why

[Chorus]
[Hook]
[joyful baritone]

[Bridge]
[Raw and unplugged intensity]
[Steel-string guitar builds slightly]
I thought the ending was a hole in the ground
But it’s just a new path that I finally found
Thirty years was a lifetime, a beautiful run
But a new kind of living has only begun
I’m breathing so deep that my chest starts to ache
And I love every choice that I’m allowed to make

[Chorus]
[Hook]
[Joyful, soaring baritone]

[Outro]
[Natural room reverb]
[Slow final strums]
The door is unlocked and the air is sweet
I’m finding the rhythm of my own two feet
Thirty years gone like a leaf in the stream
And I’m waking up into a brand new dream
[Fade out]
[End]
