[Verse 1] Your chin rests easy in your hand Wood grain running under your sleeve A half-cold cup beside the lamp You look like you forgot to leave [Pre-Chorus] No grand answer, no perfect plan Just your eyes meeting mine again [Chorus] Stay for the ordinary Stay while the kettle starts to sing Let the afternoon go nowhere Let the small things mean everything If the world keeps asking questions We can leave them at the door You don’t have to be impressive You’re enough exactly as you are [Verse 2] Loose hair falling past your cheek A little smile you try to hide The room is quiet, warm, and weak With golden dust along the blinds [Pre-Chorus] No grand answer, no perfect plan Just your fingers finding mine again [Chorus] Stay for the ordinary Stay while the kettle starts to sing Let the afternoon go nowhere Let the small things mean everything If the world keeps asking questions We can leave them at the door You don’t have to be impressive You’re enough exactly as you are [Bridge] Tomorrow can carry its own weight Tonight, let the table hold the day I’ll keep the light on by the window You can take your time, you can take your time [Final Chorus] Stay for the ordinary Stay while the kettle starts to sing Let the afternoon go nowhere Let the small things mean everything If the world keeps asking questions We can leave them at the door You don’t have to be impressive You’re enough exactly as you are [Outro] Your chin rests easy in your hand And I’m glad you stayed where you are
