Tift Merritt - Plainest Thing lyrics

I found a mark

Where the ink bled through

Under a song

I was writing for you

Crumpled up in a drawer

Stained with blue

Quiet and easy

What I wanted to prove

The plainest thing

The plainest thing

I walk right by it

It's just the plainest thing

The sun hits the floor

Same as the shadows will

So I sat in the light

I stayed very still

Heat on my skin

Bright on my face

I didn't have any questions

I didn't feel out of place

The plainest thing

The plainest thing

I forgot about it

It's just the plainest thing

I don't know how it works

I don't know how to say

I was thinking bout us

It's just the plainest thing
