Water at the Door
Style: Cinematic strings

[Verse 1]
Water pools where the doorway meets the ground
Cars keep moving, going on their way
I stay still when you are around
You make the noise outside fade away

[Pre-chorus]
I have counted all the things I need
Most of them turn out to be small
But one keeps rising like a steady creed

[Chorus]
Clifford, you're the calm I can afford
Every ordinary day feels like reward
Nothing fancy, nothing loud or scored
Just you, Clifford, and the peace we can't afford

[Verse 2]
The rain keeps falling long after dark
Puddles catching light from passing cars
I think of how you steady every spark
How you hold me closer than the stars

[Chorus]
Clifford, you're the calm I can afford
Every ordinary day feels like reward
Nothing fancy, nothing loud or scored
Just you, Clifford, and the peace we can't afford

[Bridge]
No grand gesture, no dramatic sign
Just your hand finding mine
We don't need the world to understand

[Chorus]
Clifford, you're the calm I can afford
Every ordinary day feels like reward
Nothing fancy, nothing loud or scored
Just you, Clifford, and the peace we can't afford

[Outro]
Let the cars keep passing by outside
Water still pools where you decide to stay
