Track Insight / Lyrics
Wet fur shakes on rubber mat
Paperback spines, imagine that
Steam curls up from dryer door
Purr engine starts, a quiet roar
[Pre-
Spin cycle sings a lullaby
Sudsy water, you and I
No one asks where we've both been
Just the rhythm, warm and clean
Spin cycle shelter, twenty-four hour grace
Dryer heat kisses the rain off my face
Pages turn slow while the tumblers spin
Two strays drying off, letting warmth in
Spin cycle shelter, spin cycle shelter
Coffee stain on table three
Regulars know the tip for me
Fluorescent buzz, a steady beat
Socks pair up at my cold feet
[Pre-
Spin cycle sings a lullaby
Sudsy water, you and I
No one asks where we've both been
Just the rhythm, warm and clean
Spin cycle shelter, twenty-four hour grace
Dryer heat kisses the rain off my face
Pages turn slow while the tumblers spin
Two strays drying off, letting warmth in
Spin cycle shelter, spin cycle shelter
Lint trap catches ginger hair
Fabric softener sheet, we share
Clock ticks loud but nobody cares
Dawn paints gold on window squares
Quarter slots, a metal song
Waiting out the night too long
But here the air smells clean and sweet
Two heartbeats, one warm retreat
Spin cycle shelter, twenty-four hour grace
Dryer heat kisses the rain off my face
Pages turn slow while the tumblers spin
Two strays drying off, letting warmth in
Spin cycle shelter, spin cycle shelter
Morning rush folds cotton piles
Last spin ends, the dryer smiles
Book slides back on wooden shelf
Cat walks out, quite pleased with self
Spin cycle shelter, twenty-four hour grace
Dryer heat kisses the rain off my face
Pages turn slow while the tumblers spin
Two strays drying off, letting warmth in
Spin cycle shelter, spin cycle shelter
Spin cycle shelter
Quarter drops, the door swings wide
Dry and warm, we step outside
