Leftovers & Love

[Verse 1]
We don’t need a reason,
We just show up every season,
Same jokes, same chair,
You still stealin’ all the air.

Told myself I’d stay one night,
Now it’s Monday, pass the pie,
Every sip tastes like the past,
And I kinda hope it lasts.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
You said “thankful’s just a word,”
But I feel it when you stir the words,
We ain’t perfect, that’s the twist —
Still feels like somethin’ I’d miss.

⸻

[Chorus]
Yeah, it’s all leftovers & love,
Talkin’ too much, can’t get enough,
Messy plates, a little rough,
But that’s what I’m made of.

Oh, it’s leftovers & love,
Nothin’ fancy, just us,
All that noise turns into trust,
And that’s what I’m thankful of.

⸻

[Verse 2]
Text from you, “you up again?”
Pulled up in that same old Benz,
Carve the night like it’s a meal,
Ain’t no feast, but it’s real.

Candles low and hearts undone,
Family, friends, it’s all one,
Little moments, blurry scenes,
Feel like movies, feel like dreams.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
We said grace, but not out loud,
Just a look across the crowd,
You said, “keep it simple, babe,”
And I did — I stayed.

⸻

[Chorus]
Yeah, it’s leftovers & love,
Talkin’ too much, can’t get enough,
Messy plates, a little rough,
But that’s what I’m made of.

Oh, it’s leftovers & love,
Nothin’ fancy, just us,
All that noise turns into trust,
And that’s what I’m thankful of.

⸻

[Bridge – vibey, modern twist]
Late night truths in the kitchen light,
Laughter spillin’ into morning white,
All the broken, all the bright —
We blend it just right.

⸻

[Final Chorus – slow, emotional build]
It’s leftovers & love,
From the chaos, we rise above,
Every scar’s a sign of us,
And that’s what I’m thankful of.

(fade out)
Leftovers… and love.
