Company In The Kitchen (Acoustic Folk-Pop)

[Intro] (kettle hum, easy guitar strum) [Verse 1] Got the radio on low and the window open wide Onions in the pan and a little steam inside It used to feel so quiet when I cooked for only one Now I hum along with every song till the cooking's done [Pre-Chorus] The kettle sings, the sauce bubbles slow There's more good noise here than I'd know [Chorus] There's company in the kitchen In the clatter and the glow In the stories on the radio And the bread I set to grow I can set a second plate out For a neighbour or a friend There's company in the kitchen And a door that opens in [Verse 2] I wrote my mum's old recipe on a card above the stove Called a friend to ask the secret of the soup she always wove We laughed about the burnt bits and the time I dropped the pie Funny how a little cooking makes the lonely hours fly [Pre-Chorus] The oven warms, the evening glows There's room for more than someone knows [Chorus] There's company in the kitchen In the clatter and the glow In the stories on the radio And the bread I set to grow I can set a second plate out For a neighbour or a friend There's company in the kitchen And a door that opens in [Bridge] Maybe Thursday I'll knock next door Bring a bowl and ask for nothing more Than a chair, a chat, a cup of tea A little kitchen company [Final Chorus] There's company in the kitchen In the clatter and the glow I can set a second plate out There's a door that opens in [Outro] (guitar and kettle fade) Company in the kitchen
