Ordinary Proof

{gentle fingerpicked acoustic guitar,

warm acoustic grand piano chords}

I remembered that you hate the blue ones

So I picked them out before you woke

Moved the appointment to the afternoon

Because I know you need a slower morning

Folded everything the way you like

Kept the coffee warm until you came Twelve years of learning every

detail And it still doesn't have a name {weary intimate female vocals}

Is this not

love enough

All the ordinary proof

Is this not love enough Or did you need a bigger truth

{melodic bass swell, light tambourine}

I became the calendar,

the clock

The one who knows which key is which

I carry every pin and password

Every allergy, every stitch

But somewhere in the organizing

I forgot to sit and stay

I got so good at running this I forgot that I could

play (ooh) {subtle soulful backing harmony} I don't want credit and I

don't want thanks

I want to stop and not have everything fall

I want to be the one who's taken care of

Even just once before the morning call {drums drop out,

just piano and voice building slightly} Maybe this was love enough But

it cannot be the only proof

Maybe this was love enough

Now I need a bigger truth {full but gentle drum

entrance, soaring vocal finish} {tender fading piano arpeggio,

final quiet acoustic guitar chords,

breathing}
