One Mug at the Tap
Style: Country waltz

[Verse 1]
I hold this mug beneath the tap
and I am thinking of your face
the water runs, my hands go slow
because I'm in no kind of race

[Chorus]
Ella, this is how I love you
steady, plain, and never rushed
not some grand and burning fire
just this quiet that I trust

[Verse 2]
You left this cup out on the ledge
one small sign that you were here
I turn it over in the light
and something in my chest goes clear

[Pre-chorus]
I could dress it up in bigger words
call it fate or call it flame
but the truth sits smaller than all that

[Chorus]
Ella, this is how I love you
steady, plain, and never rushed
not some grand and burning fire
just this quiet that I trust

[Bridge]
No one sees this moment but me
just suds and steam and your name
I wouldn't trade it for anything louder

[Chorus]
Ella, this is how I love you
steady, plain, and never rushed
not some grand and burning fire
just this quiet that I trust

[Outro]
I'll set this mug back on the shelf
still loving you when the water's still
