Steam on a Cold Bench
Style: Bossa nova

[Verse 1]
Two cups steaming on wet steel
Streetlights flicker, catch and reel
Nobody else is out this late
You make the cold feel real

[Pre-chorus]
I keep losing track of time
Every word you say lands fine
Something in me wants to stay

[Chorus]
Axel, you make quiet feel like home
Never asking me to be alone
Steam rises slow, the night stands still
Axel, you're the warmth I've known

[Verse 2]
The bench is cold beneath us both
You laugh and I forget the frost
Streetlight hums a broken song
This moment isn't lost

[Pre-chorus]
I keep losing track of time
Every word you say lands fine
Something in me wants to stay

[Chorus]
Axel, you make quiet feel like home
Never asking me to be alone
Steam rises slow, the night stands still
Axel, you're the warmth I've known

[Bridge]
No need to fill the silence up
You just sit here, hands round the cup
That's enough, that's always enough

[Chorus]
Axel, you make quiet feel like home
Never asking me to be alone
Steam rises slow, the night stands still
Axel, you're the warmth I've known

[Outro]
Cups gone cold on the metal bench
You're still here, that's all I need
