Static on the Line
Style: Irish air

[Verse 1]
The phone hums low beside the bed
Half your sentence lost, half said
Still I know that voice by heart
Angela, you were never far apart

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need a clean line to hear you
Static or silence, I'd know if it's true
Just say my name and I'm already there

[Chorus]
Angela, hold on, don't hang up yet
You're the one I never could forget
Angela, through the noise and the hiss
There's no sound that could ever ruin this

[Verse 2]
You laugh and the wire crackles too
Like even the night wants to hear you
I press the phone closer to my ear
Trying to keep every word you're near

[Bridge]
Some nights the signal breaks and fades
But what we are was never made
Out of clear lines or perfect calls
It's steadier than that when it falls

[Chorus]
Angela, hold on, don't hang up yet
You're the one I never could forget
Angela, through the noise and the hiss
There's no sound that could ever ruin this

[Outro]
The receiver's warm against my face
Angela, you're still my favourite place
