No fireworks, no overnight parade
We didn't crash, we kind of grew
A little warmth that simply stayed and stayed
Til ordinary turned to something true
You know my coffee, I know your bad knee
We finish jokes the other one forgets
There's nothing flashy here for folks to see
Just years of quiet, paid-up, no regrets
Slow cooker love, takes its time
Low and steady, tastes so fine
Nobody rushing, nobody cold
Slow cooker love getting better as we get old
Simmer down, simmer sweet
Best thing waiting when I'm beat
The kind of love you almost overlook
'Cause it never asks to be the show
But read it like a worn and softened book
It's the deepest thing I'll ever know
Slow cooker love, takes its time
Low and steady, tastes so fine
Nobody rushing, nobody cold
Slow cooker love getting better as we get old
Simmer down, simmer sweet
Best thing waiting when I'm beat
Let the young ones chase the flash and the flame
We'll be right here, glad it's mostly the same
Two chairs facing the same window light
Easiest thing in the world to get right
Slow cooker love, takes its time
Low and steady, tastes so fine
Nobody rushing, nobody cold
Slow cooker love getting better as we get old
Simmer down, simmer sweet
Best thing waiting when I'm beat
