New song on new Cigar Box Guitar

https://bemuzic.bandcamp.com/

As I have a bad throat and the weather is freezing, I decided to stay at home by the fire and do a few videos. I managed to sing a new song while sucking a throat sweet!
I wrote it a few weeks back sitting at the kitchen table one Sunday morning.
I wanted to write a song, but didn't know what about...so it's sort of a song about writing a song!
Not sure what to call it? "At The Kitchen Table" ?? Suggestions welcome.

LYRICS

At the kitchen table, I write myself into the day.
Light reaches out to me, light reaches out to me,
it reaches out, inviting me to play.

In coffee swirling daydreams, I am flowing with the tide.
Black words on white paper, black words on white paper,
words on paper, what's on the other side?

& I know the world is changing,
far beyond the glass.
Turn off the radio, I turn off the radio,
it's all happening too fast.

Inst

As I sit silently, I feel my body keeping time.
The rhythm never changes, the rhythm never changes,
it never changes, as I'm searching for the rhyme.

At the kitchen table, I write myself out of the day.
The light is fading now, the light is fading,
it is fading, nothing more to say...
