Crusts on the Blanket
Style: Slow R&B

[Verse 1]
You leave the crusts for the birds
Say the soft part's mine to keep
I watch you give it all away
And I want no other kind of love

[Pre-chorus]
You don't make a show of caring
You just stay when the day runs long
And that's the thing that's pulling me in

[Chorus]
Ciara, you keep me sitting still
Nowhere I would rather be than here
The blanket's red, the light is low
Ciara, you're the reason I don't leave

[Verse 2]
You laugh with crumbs still on your hand
Don't care how it looks to anyone
I've loved people who needed more polish
You just needed me to stay

[Pre-chorus]
You don't make a show of caring
You just stay when the day runs long
And that's the thing that's pulling me in

[Chorus]
Ciara, you keep me sitting still
Nowhere I would rather be than here
The blanket's red, the light is low
Ciara, you're the reason I don't leave

[Bridge]
Let the ants take what they want
We've got nowhere else to be
Every ordinary hour with you
Feels like something I should keep

[Chorus]
Ciara, you keep me sitting still
Nowhere I would rather be than here
The blanket's red, the light is low
Ciara, you're the reason I don't leave

[Outro]
Someone will fold the blanket up
I'll still be holding on to you
