[Verse 1]
The tea's gone cold beside the books
We stopped mid page to trade our looks
Nothing here was ever loud
And still you're all I ever wanted, Alfred

[Pre-chorus]
I forget what I was reading
I just watch the way you're breathing
Something in me starts to lean

[Chorus]
Alfred, you're the calm I chose
The quiet where my worry goes
No one else has ever held me steady
Alfred, that's just how it is

[Verse 2]
We let the pages go unturned
Some nights are not for being learned
Just for sitting close and warm
You make an ordinary evening golden, Alfred

[Chorus]
Alfred, you're the calm I chose
The quiet where my worry goes
No one else has ever held me steady
Alfred, that's just how it is

[Bridge]
I don't need the noise or the show
Just this room and you to know
However far the day has led
I'm always coming back to you instead

[Chorus]
Alfred, you're the calm I chose
The quiet where my worry goes
No one else has ever held me steady
Alfred, that's just how it is

[Outro]
The tea went cold, we never cared
Alfred, that's the love we shared
