Small Blue Thing
Style: Bossa nova

[Verse 1]
Just a paperclip, holding its place
Between two stacks that lean and sway
Nothing there to make a fuss
That's how you love me, day to day

[Pre-chorus]
You never needed to be loud
I found you steady in the crowd
Now every quiet thing you do

[Chorus]
Cleo, you're the calm I keep
Small and sure and never cheap
Cleo, when the noise gets high
You're the reason I don't spin, don't fly

[Verse 2]
Papers slide and lose their place
But you stay bent the way you're bent
Holding on when things get loose
You were never meant to bend

[Bridge]
I don't need the grand romantic scene
Just you here, holding steady between
Two stacks of everything that shifts
You're the smallest, surest gift

[Chorus]
Cleo, you're the calm I keep
Small and sure and never cheap
Cleo, when the noise gets high
You're the reason I don't spin, don't fly

[Outro]
Still that paperclip stays true
Still I stay right here with you
