Water Over the Rim
Style: Bossa nova

[Verse 1]
Your sleeves are wet up to the elbow
Bubbles catch the kitchen light
Water spills before you notice
You laugh like it's no trouble at all

[Chorus]
Michaela, you steady my whole day
Some kind of calm I can't explain away
I watch you standing at the sink
And know I'd choose this over any stellar view

[Verse 2]
You leave the tap running just a moment
Lost in whatever song's in your head
There's nothing special in this kitchen
Except for the fact that you're in it

[Pre-chorus]
I could list a hundred reasons
But they'd all come back to one
You turn around, still smiling

[Chorus]
Michaela, you steady my whole day
Some kind of calm I can't explain away
I watch you standing at the sink
And know I'd choose this over any stellar view

[Bridge]
No candlelight, no big occasion
Just soap suds sliding down your wrist
This is the love I didn't plan for
The kind that stays after the rush

[Chorus]
Michaela, you steady my whole day
Some kind of calm I can't explain away
I watch you standing at the sink
And know I'd choose this over any stellar view

[Outro]
The water's long gone cold and quiet
But I'm still here, watching you shine
