Rest Easy Here
Style: Motown ballad

[Verse 1]
The kitchen light is soft and low
Water's settling round the rim
I set the sponge down nice and slow
And think of how you steady him

[Pre-chorus]
There's nothing loud about this love
No grand parade, no flashing sign
Just quiet building up in me

[Chorus]
Gladys, you're the calm I chose
Some hearts shout it, mine just adds
Every little thing you do, and how it grows
You're the reason peace feels good, Gladys

[Verse 2]
You hum while drying off your hands
Like nothing's wrong and nothing's rushed
I watch you move through small demands
And feel the noise in me get hushed

[Chorus]
Gladys, you're the calm I chose
Some hearts shout it, mine just adds
Every little thing you do, and how it grows
You're the reason peace feels good, Gladys

[Bridge]
I don't need the world to prove it
I just need you standing there
Some love shouts, but yours just moves in
Settles soft in ordinary air

[Chorus]
Gladys, you're the calm I chose
Some hearts shout it, mine just adds
Every little thing you do, and how it grows
You're the reason peace feels good, Gladys

[Outro]
The bowl still holds the light of day
You made it easy, come what may
