[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I found that small tin box. By the scarf pins and thread. A spare button rolled loose. A small blue eye, still bright. [Chorus] A button saved in a tin. A button saved in a tin. One small stitch, then two more. Her coat sits right on her. A button saved in a tin. A button saved in a tin. I stitched that button tight. She smiles and pulls it on. [Verse 2] Her sleeve had a gap there. The cuff was coming free. I matched the worn blue thread. And held my breath to sew. No big deal, she said. But she kept still for me. Then that old coat fit well. Like it knew her again. [Chorus] A button saved in a tin. A button saved in a tin. One small stitch, then two more. Her coat sits right on her. A button saved in a tin. A button saved in a tin. I stitched that button tight. She smiles and pulls it on. [Instrumental Interlude] [Bridge] We did not need much talk. Just the tin and my lap. Needle, thread, one loose part. And her cold hands warm up. [Final Chorus] A button saved in a tin. A button saved in a tin. One small stitch, then two more. Her coat sits right on her. A button saved in a tin. A button saved in a tin. I stitched that button tight. She smiles and pulls it on. [Instrumental Outro]
