Green Walls and Waiting
Style: Country waltz

[Verse 1]
A plastic cup shakes on the tray
green walls hum under the light
I count the tiles down the hall
just to keep your face in sight

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need the words to be grand
I just need you here when it's hard
this waiting would break me alone

[Chorus]
Dorothy, you steady my hands
Dorothy, you carry my name
even here on this cold floor
you make the waiting feel tame

[Verse 2]
The linoleum echoes our steps
two cups going cold on the tray
I forget every worry I had
when you look at me that way

[Chorus]
Dorothy, you steady my hands
Dorothy, you carry my name
even here on this cold floor
you make the waiting feel tame

[Bridge]
Some loves are loud and they burn fast
ours moves slow, ours moves true
I'd sit on this floor for a year
if it meant I sat here with you

[Chorus]
Dorothy, you steady my hands
Dorothy, you carry my name
even here on this cold floor
you make the waiting feel tame

[Outro]
The cup still shakes on the tray
but my hand has stopped, next to yours
