"WARM OVEN"

[Verse 1]

Flour on the counter

Recipe on the phone

Half-price sugar from the corner store

Feels like I’m already home

Measuring out courage

By the teaspoon in my hand

Mixing up a Monday

Into something we can stand

 

[Chorus]

Warm Oven Home Baking

Turn the dial

Let it glow

Whisking up a little hope

In a thrift-store mixing bowl

Simple

Sweet

And humble

From our tiny kitchen walls

Warm Oven Home Baking

Where I learn I can do it all

 

[Verse 2]

One egg

Then another

Beat the doubts until they fall

Butter getting softer

Like I’m softening to it all

Hand-me-down old muffin tin

Timer ticking steady time

Budget-friendly magic

Rising as the edges brown

 

[Chorus]

Warm Oven Home Baking

Turn the dial

Let it glow

Whisking up a little hope

In a thrift-store mixing bowl

Simple

Sweet

And humble

From our tiny kitchen walls

Warm Oven Home Baking

Where I learn I can do it all

 

[Bridge]

I used to read the comments

Thinking I could never try (never try)

Now I’m dusted up in laughter

Watching biscuits puff up high

Step by step I’m braver

With each tray I slide inside

This warm oven keeps on teaching

There’s a maker in my mind (oh, I’m finding)

 

[Chorus]

Warm Oven Home Baking

Turn the dial

Let it glow

Whisking up a little hope

In a thrift-store mixing bowl

Simple

Sweet

And humble

From our tiny kitchen walls

Warm Oven Home Baking

Where I learn I can do it all
