Under the Flickering Light
Style: Soul waltz

[Verse 1]
Dust on my fingers, crates on the floor
I found this bulb that hums and hums
You in the corner, wanting one more
Patient while the old light comes

[Chorus]
Elin, you steady me like nothing can
Sweet as a low chord held on seven
Elin, you're the one true plan
Feels like a small piece of heaven

[Verse 2]
Sleeves gone soft from years of hands
You wipe the label clean and grin
We build our nights from these old bands
Nothing has felt this good in Devon

[Pre-chorus]
The needle drops, the room goes still
You look at me like you always will
And something in my chest gives in

[Chorus]
Elin, you steady me like nothing can
Sweet as a low chord held on seven
Elin, you're the one true plan
Feels like a small piece of heaven

[Bridge]
No weapon sharp enough to break this
No leaven needed to make it rise
You're the calm beneath the static hiss
The truth I keep behind my eyes

[Chorus]
Elin, you steady me like nothing can
Sweet as a low chord held on seven
Elin, you're the one true plan
Feels like a small piece of heaven

[Outro]
The bulb still flickers, the crates still stand
And I would choose you, out of every one
