歌詞

It pours the way a ribbon falls

In one unbroken line

I tip the pan above the mug

The chocolate leaves in silk

A slow brown ribbon, warm and thick

That once was snow and milk

It settles in the waiting mug

And rocks itself to still

Pour it slow, the silky cup

The kindest kind of full

My cup runs over, soft and sweet

His goodness has the pull

The last drop lands a little late

The way last drops all do

The mug is warm from base to rim

The steam is curling through

The kitchen light leans in to look

And gilds the surface gold

Pour it slow, the silky cup

The kindest kind of full

My cup runs over, soft and sweet

His goodness has the pull

A cup you made from start to end

Is more than something warm

It's twenty minutes of your care

Now resting in one form

Mmm... mmm... mmm

Pour it slow, the silky cup

The kindest kind of full

My cup runs over, soft and sweet

His goodness has the pull

Pour it slow, the silky cup

The kindest kind of full

My cup runs over, soft and sweet

His goodness has the pull

The ribbon's poured, the pan is bare

The mug has all the wealth
