lyrics

You slid my badge across the desk at nine

I saw your name on the rota line

I was ten minutes late, you made it fine

Never said a word, just saved my spine

My Tim card buzzed by the fryer light

You held my apron while I fixed it right

In the break room, you kept it light

Like nothing happened in the midday bite

And I keep thinking, every shift I miss

Who does that kind of thing like this?

You never ask for a thank-you kiss

You just nod once, then you dismiss

You covered for me

You covered for me

You covered for me

And never said a thing

You covered for me

You covered for me

You covered for me

Like it was nothing

At the Dundas stop, my bus ran cold

I came in late with my hoodie old

You told the floor I was stuck outside

Then passed me coffee by the side

At closing time, when the lights went low

You locked the till with a careful throw

You wrote my hours on a yellow note

Then left it face-down by my coat

And I keep thinking, every shift I miss

Who does that kind of thing like this?

You never ask for a thank-you kiss

You just nod once, then you dismiss

You covered for me

You covered for me

You covered for me

And never said a thing

You covered for me

You covered for me

You covered for me

Like it was nothing

If I were you, I’d bring it up

I’d want the credit, want the cup

But you just shrug and grab your keys

No speech, no scene, just basic ease

So when the line gets long and mean

I look for you in the stainless steel

And there you are, by the milk crate stack

Covering me, like you always have

You covered for me

You covered for me

You covered for me

And never said a thing

You covered for me

You covered for me

You covered for me

Like it was nothing
