Day After Day

The morning Sun across the wood
As I set the table here
I never thought I understood
What makes something so dear

Your coffee cup leaves circles on my table
Around and around they stay
Your coffee cup leaves circles on my table

Day after day after day
Quiet footsteps down the hall
Steam rising in the air
Watching patterns rise and fall

In moments that we share
Your coffee cup leaves circles on my table
Around and around they stay
Your coffee cup leaves circles on my table

Day after day
These marks will fade with time
But something deep stays behind
Like rings inside a tree

Growing between you and me
Growing between them and me
These marks will fade with time
But something deeper stays behind

Like rings inside a tree
Growing between you and me
Simple routines tell a tale
Like fingerprints in time

Some things never seem to fail
To make this life so fine
Your coffee cup leaves circles on my table
Around and around they stay

Your coffee cup leaves circles on my table
Day after day
(Day after day, after day, after day, after day)
