The Quilt of Childhood Days

[Chorus] Sunlight's pourin' through the apple trees On faded linen, catchin' the breeze My ginger cat is curled up, warm and deep On sun-baked pillows, secrets they keep This ol' quilt's a memory, a golden haze Steamin' up my childhood days [Verse] Barefoot on the clover, freshly mowed Smell of soap and sun, a sweet payload I'm gatherin' the blankets, one by one Beneath the gentle autumn sun Her silhouette is hummin' a tune so low Watchin' where the warm winds blow [Pre-Chorus] And the world outside just fades away In this golden, peaceful day Everything is calm, everything's right Bathed in this familiar light [Chorus] Sunlight's pourin' through the apple trees On faded linen, catchin' the breeze My ginger cat is curled up, warm and deep On sun-baked pillows, secrets they keep This ol' quilt's a memory, a golden haze Steamin' up my childhood days [Verse] Grandma's hands, they fold with gentle grace Each stitch a smile upon her face She hums a melody, soft and old A story in the warmth untold I bury my face in the fabric so clean The safest place I've ever been [Bridge] These threads remember every summer's heat Every scraped knee, every bitter-sweet Moment that has shaped the me I am Held within this sun-kissed plan [Chorus] Sunlight's pourin' through the apple trees On faded linen, catchin' the breeze My ginger cat is curled up, warm and deep On sun-baked pillows, secrets they keep This ol' quilt's a memory, a golden haze Steamin' up my childhood days [Outro] Steamin' up my childhood days
