Sleeves in the Porch
Style: Jazz standard

[Verse 1]
Rain caught us both by surprise
We ducked into the porch light
Folding the umbrella twice
Your sleeve against mine, damp and tight

[Chorus]
Cadi, you steady my hand
Nothing about this feels shady
Two coats and a small piece of land
Is enough of a world, Cadi

[Verse 2]
I never needed the weather
To find a reason to stay
Your laugh made the porch feel steadier
Than any dry, ordinary day

[Pre-chorus]
I could name a hundred small things
Small proof that you're always there
But it all comes back round to

[Chorus]
Cadi, you steady my hand
Nothing about this feels shady
Two coats and a small piece of land
Is enough of a world, Cadi

[Bridge]
Maybe it's nothing grand
Just wet sleeves and a shared roof
But I've held on to less, and understood

[Chorus]
Cadi, you steady my hand
Nothing about this feels shady
Two coats and a small piece of land
Is enough of a world, Cadi

[Outro]
Let the rain keep the porch light company
I'll keep folding this umbrella, so long as it's with you
