Soaking in the Sink
Style: Irish air

[Verse 1]
One chipped mug left in the sink
water gone cold while I think
how you take your tea each day
small thing but it never goes away

[Chorus]
Declan, you're the steady kind
the sort of love that stays behind
not loud, not new, but always true
Declan, I'd choose this life with you

[Verse 2]
You laughed at the crack along the rim
said it still holds tea to the brim
I kept it because you did too
that's how I learned to hold onto you

[Pre-chorus]
Nothing about us needs to shout
this is what quiet love's about
and every day it's proving out

[Chorus]
Declan, you're the steady kind
the sort of love that stays behind
not loud, not new, but always true
Declan, I'd choose this life with you

[Bridge]
Some loves burn and some loves bend
yours is the kind that doesn't end
not a spark but a lasting flame
Declan, you make the ordinary feel unchanged

[Chorus]
Declan, you're the steady kind
the sort of love that stays behind
not loud, not new, but always true
Declan, I'd choose this life with you

[Outro]
That same mug's soaking there tonight
and so is this, still holding tight
