Peanut Butter Toast

from Lavender Moonshine by Tret Fure

lyrics

Well, the side door opens and you walk inside
I say “hey baby, what ya doing”
You’ve been in so many meetings
That you’re bleary-eyed
I say “hey baby, how ya doing”
It’s cold out there
Won’t you come to me
I’ll hold you til you’re warm in the center
I’ll hold you all through the winter

It’s been the longest year that has ever come
I say, “Hey baby, don’t you think it”
12 months and counting and we’re still not done
I say, ”Hey baby. don’t you think it”
Went down to the corner
Just to get away
But I ran right back to your embrace
I had to see that smile on your face

Chorus
Give me a little of your coffee
Give me a little of your time
Make me some toast in the morning
Put a little peanut butter on one side
I’ll give you a little of my love
And I’ll give you even more of my heart
Make sure that you write me a letter
When we next find ourselves apart
Cause I don’t ever, ever, ever, ever, ever want to
Lose your love


How ‘bout we go down to the sushi bar
I say, “Hey baby, wanna do it”
Put on a sweater and get in the car
I say “Hey baby wanna do it”
We can sit at the counter
Where there’s no one else
Have a little bit of private conversation
The closest thing to a vacation

Chorus

Bridge
Everyday feels the same
Even though every day is new
You and I are the lucky ones
You’ve got me and I’ve got you

Pretty soon we’ll be swimming in the deep blue sea
I say, “Hey baby, can you feel it”
Take off your mask and jump in with me
I say, “Hey baby, can you feel it”
We’ll remember those days
We’ll remember these nights
Cause we never really want to forget
It’s brought us closer together, you bet

Chorus
