Spine
Style: Chamber folk

[Verse 1]
Your hand found mine by chance
reaching for the same old book
two strangers to the shelf
but something in that look

[Pre-chorus]
Nothing planned, nothing said
just fingers where the pages start
and something quiet moved

[Chorus]
Elsie, that was all it took
a touch too small to name
now you're the one I reach for
Elsie, you're not the same

[Verse 2]
Years could pass and shelves could change
and books could fall from view
but I would know your hand
in any room, by you

[Pre-chorus]
Nothing planned, nothing said
just fingers where the pages start
and something quiet moved

[Chorus]
Elsie, that was all it took
a touch too small to name
now you're the one I reach for
Elsie, you're not the same

[Bridge]
Some loves come with thunder
mine came soft as turning pages
you were just there beside me
and you stayed through all the ages

[Chorus]
Elsie, that was all it took
a touch too small to name
now you're the one I reach for
Elsie, you're not the same

[Outro]
Somewhere there's a shelf still standing
and my hand still finds your own
