Two Bags By The Bench
Style: Motown ballad

[Verse 1]
Two heavy suitcases lean on the bench
Yellow paint peeling, worn from the wrench
Nobody rushing, no train yet in sight
You lean on my shoulder, everything's right

[Pre-chorus]
I've counted the ways I could lose you
Counted the trains that come and go
But my feet stay planted right here

[Chorus]
Alyssa, you're the one I'd never miss
Been waiting my whole life to kiss her
Alyssa, steady as this bench we share
Nothing feels lonely when you're there

[Verse 2]
We don't need somewhere new to prove it
Sitting still is how we move it
Your hand finds mine without a word
Quiet love is the truest I've heard

[Chorus]
Alyssa, you're the one I'd never miss
Been waiting my whole life to kiss her
Alyssa, steady as this bench we share
Nothing feels lonely when you're there

[Bridge]
Let the trains keep their timetables
We're not bound by what departs
I already got where I'm going
The minute you sat down close

[Chorus]
Alyssa, you're the one I'd never miss
Been waiting my whole life to kiss her
Alyssa, steady as this bench we share
Nothing feels lonely when you're there

[Outro]
Two bags still lean on that bench
You're the one thing I won't relinquish
