The Pen Still Rolls
Style: Doo wop

[Verse 1]
I left the envelopes unsent
I like knowing where you went
One pen rolling, slow and small
Still I hear you through the wall

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need a reason why
Just your name, I don't ask why
Something in me starts to climb

[Chorus]
Adrian, you steady every room
Every ordinary afternoon
Adrian, I count on you to stay
You turn plain time into a day

[Verse 2]
The blotter holds the pen's slow track
I keep meaning to write you back
Every letter waits its turn
But it's you I always learn

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need a reason why
Just your name, I don't ask why
Something in me starts to climb

[Chorus]
Adrian, you steady every room
Every ordinary afternoon
Adrian, I count on you to stay
You turn plain time into a day

[Bridge]
Not one grand thing you ever said
Just steady hands and a warm bed
You made the quiet feel like home

[Chorus]
Adrian, you steady every room
Every ordinary afternoon
Adrian, I count on you to stay
You turn plain time into a day

[Outro]
The pen still rolls across the blotter
I'm glad I found you, glad I sought you
