Waiting With the Fire On

Verse 1 The kettle’s singing softly now, Fire glowing low. The house is warm, the night is still, Outside the wind moves slow. You’re walking home with Nobi Under stars that gently sway. I’m here setting love in place In my quiet way. Pre-Chorus No hurry, no demand, Just time held in my hands. Chorus I make the tea, I keep it warm, I wait with the light on. Every small thing feels like love When you’re the one I’m waiting on. The world can turn, the night can fall, Nothing feels too long. I’m right here, the fire’s on, Waiting for you to come home. Verse 2 The air is crisp, the wind is loud, But peace is in this room. I smile knowing soon enough You’ll walk in from the gloom. You never raise your voice at me, Never make me feel small. You bring a calm into my life Pre-Chorus In ordinary hours, Love shows up like this. Chorus I make the tea, I keep it warm, I wait with the light on. Every simple moment glows When you’re the one I’m waiting on. No need for words, no need to rush, Just knowing where you’ve gone. I’m right here, the fire’s on, Waiting for you to come home. Bridge Some loves are loud, some burn too fast, Ours moves soft and slow. In all the things we never say, I hope you always know. Final Chorus I make the tea, I keep it warm, I wait with the light on. I feel lucky every time I get to call this love my own. The wind can howl, the night can stretch, But I know where you belong. I’m right here, the fire’s on, And I’m happy you’re coming home. Outro The door will open, You’ll smile at me. And everything is exactly Where it’s meant to be.
