Wet Tarmac Blues
Style: Blues slow dance

[Verse 1]
Orange light spills on the puddles
Wet trainers squeak through the town
My whole world narrows to this street
And you're the reason I ain't troubled

[Pre-chorus]
I count the lamps we're walking past
Every step feels built to last
And my heart's leaning where you are

[Chorus]
Darren, you're the warmest thing I know
Steady as a heartbeat, soft and slow
Some folks chase a fortune, I chase you
Darren, you're the only place I go

[Verse 2]
You laugh and the whole street softens
Puddle light shakes like it's dancing too
I don't need the sky to clear up
Long as I'm still walking next to you

[Bridge]
No grand words, no big parade
Just this quiet thing we've made
It's in the way you hold my hand
Simple as the rain that stayed

[Chorus]
Darren, you're the warmest thing I know
Steady as a heartbeat, soft and slow
Some folks chase a fortune, I chase you
Darren, you're the only place I go

[Outro]
The lamps still glow on the puddles
And I'm still here, right by your side
