[Verse 1] Kettle breathing on the shelf Rain tapping at the glass You kick your shoes by the door And let the long day pass The room smells like toast and mint Your hair still holds the cold I pull the chair a little close And watch the fire glow [Pre-Chorus] Stay right there Don’t move too far Let the soft stuff win Let the hard day thaw [Chorus] Fire in the bake, tea on the table Feet in slippers, blanket on your back Fire in the bake, tea on the table You look like home in a little glass crack Fire in the bake, tea on the table (tea on the table) Feet in slippers, blanket on your back (blanket on your back) [Verse 2] Crumbs on the counter edge Steam on the window pane Your hands around the blue-white cup Like you’re holding off the rain I say the world can wait a minute You laugh and sink right in The clock keeps on with its little teeth But here we don’t give in [Pre-Chorus] Stay right there Don’t move too far Let the soft stuff win Let the hard day thaw [Chorus] Fire in the bake, tea on the table Feet in slippers, blanket on your back Fire in the bake, tea on the table You look like home in a little glass crack Fire in the bake, tea on the table (tea on the table) Feet in slippers, blanket on your back (blanket on your back) [Bridge] If the wind comes knocking hard If the dark wants one more say We’ll stack the quiet by the sink And send the heavy far away [Final Chorus] Fire in the bake, tea on the table Feet in slippers, blanket on your back Fire in the bake, tea on the table You look like home in a little glass crack Fire in the bake, tea on the table (tea on the table) Feet in slippers, blanket on your back (blanket on your back)
