Текст песни Potluck - Carrie Newcomer

The plates are stacked
The house is clean
At least as close
As I've ever seen

Soup on the stove
The record sings
Sometimes you gotta trust
Whatever people bring

Just put it on the table
Next to the wine and beer
Don't mind the mess
Glad you're here
Come in from the cold dark
Pull up a chair
Whatever you've brought on in
It's welcome here

Louise made those deviled eggs
On the edge of a heart break
Johnny picked up a bag of chips
Because he had nothing at home to take

Aubrey brought all the kids
With cookies as a bribe
Paul hesitates at the door
Before he finally walks inside

Just put it on the table
Next to the wine and beer
Don't mind the mess
Glad you are here
Come in from the cold dark
Pull up a chair
Whatever you've brought on in
It's welcome here

Of all the troubles we carried around
All the losses we cannot seem to put down
It's a quiet mercy we're saying grace
Holding the soft light juggling plates

The kids are tired the dog is asleep
Leftovers in hand and a hug when you leave
Gravel steps and a slipper moon
The big dipper shines like a big ol silver spoon

Just put it on the table
When the night is bright and clear
Don't mind the mess
Glad you were here
May the meal go with you
You're not alone
As the heavens keep turning
On the slow way home
On the slow way home
