Blue Mug, Missing Handle

[Verse 1]

Found you on the second shelf

Dust ring where you used to stand

Chip of sky baked into ceramic

Name of a diner I’ve never been to

[Chorus]

Blue mug, missing handle

Still I drink from you each day

Little risk, little ritual

Guess I like things that might break

Blue mug, missing handle

Balancing my shaky hands

If you fall, if you shatter

I’ll just sweep you, start again

[Verse 2]

Coffee stain in the shape of a country

Steam spells something I can’t read

You wobble when I bump the table

Like you’re laughing right back at me (oh)

[Chorus]

Blue mug, missing handle

Still I drink from you each day

Little risk, little ritual

Guess I like things that might break

Blue mug, missing handle

Balancing my shaky hands

If you fall, if you shatter

I’ll just sweep you, start again
