kitchen lullabies

The clock is ticking on the wall

Shadows dancing in the hall

We boil the tea to pass the time

Hand in hand, your fingers in mine

And the world is fast asleep

But we have secrets left to keep

In the quiet of the kitchen light

Safe and warm against the night

Steam rising from

the porcelain cup

Never want this night to pack it up

The quiet hum of the old fridge

Bridging every little gap and bridge

And the world is fast asleep

But we have secrets left to keep

In the quiet of

the kitchen light

Safe and warm against the night

Safe and warm (hummmm)
