Courtney
Style: Doo wop

[Verse 1]
You leave the receipts where they land
Stacked beside the lamp’s low glow
Not because you forgot, but because you understand
That some things don’t need to go

[Chorus]
Courtney, you’re the light I lean on
No fanfare, just the quiet hum
Courtney, you’re the one who’s known
The calm that comes when I come home

[Verse 2]
You don’t sweep up the cluttered days
Just turn the lamp a little more
Like you’ve seen how the shadows play
And still you choose to stay the door

[Pre-chorus]
I never asked you to be more
You never tried to be less
And that’s the thing I can’t ignore

[Chorus]
Courtney, you’re the light I lean on
No fanfare, just the quiet hum
Courtney, you’re the one who’s known
The calm that comes when I come home

[Bridge]
It’s not the grand thing that stays
It’s the glow that waits, no fuss
Not loud, not bright, but always near
And that’s the truth I’ve come to trust

[Chorus]
Courtney, you’re the light I lean on
No fanfare, just the quiet hum
Courtney, you’re the one who’s known
The calm that comes when I come home

[Outro]
The receipts still pile, the lamp still glows
And so do you, where I belong
