Under the Rusted Roof
Style: Chamber folk

[Verse 1]
Rain comes down and finds the gaps
two coats pressed close to break the chill
the roof above us bends and rusts
you laugh and say we've had worse maps

[Pre-chorus]
I stopped watching for the sky to clear
stopped counting all the minutes lost
because this waiting turned to want

[Chorus]
Daniel, you're the warmth I lean toward
hold you closer than the storm allows
every quiet thing about you
Daniel, still the one I choose

[Verse 2]
Your shoulder takes the worst of the wind
you shift to keep me out of it
the shelter's small, the roof half gone
but I'm not looking for a bigger room

[Bridge]
Let the weather do what weather does
we've got two coats and nowhere else to be

[Chorus]
Daniel, you're the warmth I lean toward
hold you closer than the storm allows
every quiet thing about you
Daniel, still the one I choose

[Outro]
The rain will stop, the roof will hold
and I'll still want you close as this
