You wake up late Same gray shirt Kettle on The porch still hurts One cracked mug By the sink You shrug it off And I think That’s your magic Quiet and small No big parade No grand haul And I know You call it plain But plain like this Feels like rain On a hot, tired day It stays Nothing special (Just you) Nothing special (That’s true) And that’s why I want you Nothing special Feels like home You miss the train You laugh it off Grocery bags One seam got lost You save the bread You feed the birds You don’t make noise You say few words No shiny plan No perfect pose Just worn-in jeans And little knows And I know You call it plain But plain like this Feels like rain On a hot, tired day It stays Nothing special (Just you) Nothing special (That’s true) And that’s why I want you Nothing special Feels like home Maybe gold Is overrated Maybe loud Gets tired Maybe all I ever needed Was a life That breathed Nothing special (Just you) Nothing special (That’s true) And that’s why I want you Nothing special Feels like home Nothing special (Just us) Nothing special I trust And that’s enough That’s enough
