[Verse 1] I found a quarter in the glass Beside a sock with a faded seal You said, “Take it, if you want” Like luck could pay a single meal The dryer thumped your denim cuff The room smelled like soap and rain You laughed at my paper cup Then asked my name again [Pre-Chorus] And the floor kept spinning slow Our small talk turning gold I looked up at your hands You said, “Go on, hold” [Chorus] Quarter in the glass Quarter in the glass Turn my broke day fast (Quarter in the glass) You made a little flame Out of pocket change Now I keep coming back Quarter in the glass [Verse 2] You fed the machine one more Blue shirt, red stain, collar frayed I held the door with my heel Watched your hair fall out of place There was gum on the chrome bench A chipped green mop by the sink You told me about your aunt And I told you what I think [Pre-Chorus] That maybe some small things Can tip the whole room right One touch, one grin, one coin And suddenly it’s light [Chorus] Quarter in the glass Quarter in the glass Turn my broke day fast (Quarter in the glass) You made a little flame Out of pocket change Now I keep coming back Quarter in the glass [Bridge] We stood by the rattling door With the rain on your sleeve You said, “If this is nothing” Then why won’t it leave? I smiled like I knew What the answer was But all I had was your coin And a heart full of buzz [Chorus] Quarter in the glass Quarter in the glass Turn my broke day fast (Quarter in the glass) You made a little flame Out of pocket change Now I keep coming back Quarter in the glass [Outro] One coin One glance One room One chance Quarter in the glass (Quarter in the glass)
