歌詞

The saucer catches one last ring

Of coffee-colored light

Warm water over porcelain

The last of it goes round

I set it on the little rack

Without a single sound

An hour spent on nothing much

Is never spent in vain

The hour is done, but I am new

The kitchen's soft with sun

I'll carry all this quiet now

Through everything to come

I fold the towel, damp and warm

And hang it on its hook

The kitchen settles back to sleep

Like closing a good book

The hour is done, but I am new

The kitchen's soft with sun

I'll carry all this quiet now

Through everything to come

Mmm... mmm... mmm

The hour is done, but I am new

The kitchen's soft with sun

I'll carry all this quiet now

Through everything to come

The saucer catches one last ring

I'll carry all this quiet now
