Washing Dishes

In the morning, when the world came awake

Before you knew me, I knew your name

Was painted 'cross the day as it breaks

An impression in your window frame

And when you saw me out your window, singin' from the garden

Only the beginning, I'm only gettin' started

I don't mind the diggin', baby, I'll work harder

I been washing dishes, singin' from the bottom

But one day, I'll be runnin' this place

And one day, I could take you away

But I want you to wonder, what's my name

'Cause I need you to want me the same

'Cause when you saw me washing dishes, singin' from the bottom

Only the beginning, I'm only gettin' started

I don't mind the diggin', baby, I'll work harder

I been in the ashes, singin' from the garden

Well, everything reaches for the sun

Still unsure of what we'll become

But I need you to reach out to me

You see in me more than I could see

'Cause I'm afraid that one day is only two words we say

I don't wanna let them get in the way

All these plans that we should be makin' right now, right now

'Cause who took the time, and where did they take it?

Wanna take it back, I don't wanna let 'em break

All these plans that we should be makin' right now, right now

You see, now, one day I'll be runnin' this place

And one day, I could take you away

But I want you to wonder, what's my name

'Cause I need you to want me the same

'Cause when you saw me out your window, singin' from the garden

Only the beginning, I'm only gettin' started

I don't mind the diggin', baby, I'll work harder

I've been washing dishes, singin' from the bottom

But one day is only two words we say

I don't wanna let them get in the way

All these plans that we should be makin' right now, right now

But who took the time, and where did they take it?

Wanna take it back, I don't wanna let 'em break

All these plans that we should be makin' right now
