Slow to Fall
Style: Irish air

[Verse 1]
One drop holds on to the leaf
longer than you'd believe
then it lets go, and it lands
soft on the hose in your hands

[Pre-chorus]
I used to think love had to rush
had to shout, had to push
but I've learned to just wait, and see

[Chorus]
Cadi, you steady my whole day
slow as that drop finding its way
nothing sudden, nothing loud
just you, plain and unbowed, Cadi

[Verse 2]
I stand there longer than I should
watching water find the wood
I'm not thinking of the leaf at all
I'm thinking how you never stall

[Bridge]
Some loves burn and some loves flood
mine just moves slow through my blood
patient as that garden hose

[Chorus]
Cadi, you steady my whole day
slow as that drop finding its way
nothing sudden, nothing loud
just you, plain and unbowed, Cadi

[Outro]
The leaf will hold another drop tomorrow
and I'll still be here, plain and steady
