Cooling Slow
Style: Acoustic soul

[Verse 1]
Two cups are cooling on the wool
We let the coffee go and sit still
Nowhere we'd rather be than here
You make the slowing down feel full

[Pre-chorus]
I've loved you loud and I've loved you plain
Quiet as this or wild as rain
Every version leads me back again

[Chorus]
Ayaan, you're the calm I chose
Not the fire, just the glow that stays
You steady me on ordinary days
Ayaan, it's you my whole heart knows

[Verse 2]
You laugh and the whole yard softens
No need to fill the air with talk often
Just your hand resting close to mine
Nothing about us feels like an offer

[Bridge]
Some loves shout to be believed
Ours just stays, and that's enough
You never made me chase your love
You simply gave, and I received

[Chorus]
Ayaan, you're the calm I chose
Not the fire, just the glow that stays
You steady me on ordinary days
Ayaan, it's you my whole heart knows

[Outro]
The cups sit empty, cold and still
I'd choose this quiet with you, love, until
