Verse 1

The morning rests upon the sill

A cup grows warm between our hands

You trace the rain along the glass

I watch the quiet understand

Chorus

Stay here beside me, breathe awhile

Let every hurried thought grow still

Your hand in mine, the room at peace

And time can wait beyond the hill

Verse 2

The kettle sings, then settles down

A page turns softly in the air

No grand promise needs to be made

I find enough in knowing you are there

Chorus

Stay here beside me, breathe awhile
