Dust in the Light
Style: Jazz standard

[Verse 1]
Crates stacked up along the aisle
I only came to browse a while
You turned round with the light behind you
And something in me learned to smile

[Pre-chorus]
Dust hanging there like it had time
Like it was waiting just to fall
I stood still and lost my reason

[Chorus]
Cecilia, you undid me slow
Nothing sudden, nothing wild
Cecilia, how the quiet knows you
Better than the noise ever tried

[Verse 2]
We talked past closing, past the lights
Nobody came to send us home
You laughed at something small and easy
And I stopped wanting to be alone

[Bridge]
I've loved you plainly, loved you long
Never needed it to be a song
But here we are, and here it's true

[Chorus]
Cecilia, you undid me slow
Nothing sudden, nothing wild
Cecilia, how the quiet knows you
Better than the noise ever tried

[Outro]
Some light still falls across that floor
And I would choose that aisle once more
