Andrea Malone - "Same Bench, Same Sky"

[Intro] [Verse 1] We had no reason to be anywhere else Just the trail and the trees and the afternoon Didn't have a plan, didn't need one Just sat down on the bench And let the whole day breathe Talked about everything, talked about nothing The kind of conversation that doesn't need to go anywhere Laughed at something stupid for way too long And it felt like the whole world Was just those trees and that sky [Pre-Chorus] I don't need a reason to be grateful I don't need a destination to feel free All I need is a trail and enough time And someone good to walk it next to me [Chorus] Same bench, same sky Same trail winding down through the pines Same afternoon slipping into gold light Nothing to fix, nowhere to be Just the good kind of ordinary Just you, just me Same bench, same sky [Verse 2] We had this song half started on a napkin A chord that didn't quite work and a line that did Spent an hour on the bridge going back and forth Laughed more than we worked Called that close enough You said the words were almost there I said they always get there eventually You said I always said that And honestly — you weren't wrong Give it time and it comes [Pre-Chorus] I don't need a reason to be grateful I don't need a destination to feel free All I need is a trail and enough time And someone good to walk it next to me [Chorus] Same bench, same sky Same trail winding down through the pines Same afternoon slipping into gold light Nothing to fix, nowhere to be Just the good kind of ordinary Just you, just me Same bench, same sky [Bridge] There's a bend about halfway up Where the trees open just enough And the light comes through at this angle That doesn't make any sense Like the trail is doing it on purpose We always stopped there Didn't plan to, just did Every single time Like the trail expected it [Chorus] Same bench, same sky Same trail winding down through the pines Same afternoon slipping into gold light Nothing to fix, nowhere to be Just the good kind of ordinary Just you, just me Same bench, same sky [Outro] Same bench... Same sky...
