Same Tin
Style: Soul waltz

[Verse 1]
Two hands reached out at once
One tin of soup, one small chance
You laughed and let me take it home
But something stayed, I wasn't alone

[Chorus]
Ahmed, you turned a shelf into a start
Small as it was, it opened up my heart
Ahmed, I keep on reaching back to then
That aisle, that light, that moment we met

[Verse 2]
I still shop slower down that row
Half hoping for a chance to know
If you'd reach out again for me
Or if that once was meant to be

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need grand or wide or new
Just steady hands that reach for you
And stay right there when the day is through

[Chorus]
Ahmed, you turned a shelf into a start
Small as it was, it opened up my heart
Ahmed, I keep on reaching back to then
That aisle, that light, that moment we met

[Bridge]
Some loves arrive with thunder, fire, flame
Ours came quiet, wearing no name
Just two hands and one tin of soup
And somehow that was proof enough

[Chorus]
Ahmed, you turned a shelf into a start
Small as it was, it opened up my heart
Ahmed, I keep on reaching back to then
That aisle, that light, that moment we met

[Outro]
Still that tin sits on my shelf
I chose you, and I'd choose myself
