Dust on the Sleeve
Style: Doo wop

[Verse 1]
Dust rises up from the crate
Every worn old sleeve feels like fate
I stop on one gone soft and grey
And think of you in a different way

[Pre-chorus]
Every cover holds a little scar
Every song was playing somewhere, somewhere far
But none of them sound like where you are

[Chorus]
Darcey, you're the calm in my chest
Darcey, you make plain look like the best
No song on this shelf gets it right
You're the one that plays through the night

[Verse 2]
Some spines are cracked, some hold up fine
I run my thumb along every line
None of them ever needed to try
You just are, and that's why

[Pre-chorus]
Every cover holds a little scar
Every song was playing somewhere, somewhere far
But none of them sound like where you are

[Chorus]
Darcey, you're the calm in my chest
Darcey, you make plain look like the best
No song on this shelf gets it right
You're the one that plays through the night

[Bridge]
I don't need the needle to drop
To know that with you, my worry stops
You steady me without a sound
That's the quietest love I've found

[Chorus]
Darcey, you're the calm in my chest
Darcey, you make plain look like the best
No song on this shelf gets it right
You're the one that plays through the night

[Outro]
Let the dust settle back in the crate
You're still the one I'd pick, first or late
