Two Mittens
Style: Cinematic strings

[Verse 1]
Two mittens dropped on the frozen grass
Left there where they fell, close and small
Nobody came back to claim them
But I would know that red anywhere, Gladys

[Pre-chorus]
I keep finding pieces of you
Small and left behind and warm still
Something in me won't let them go

[Chorus]
Gladys, you're the warm in a cold field
However far, you're never far, Gladys
Some things get left, some things get kept
I kept you, and I'm glad it's this

[Verse 2]
The grass was hard, the morning bright
You'd laughed and run ahead too fast
I picked them up without thinking twice
Some things you just don't leave, Gladys

[Chorus]
Gladys, you're the warm in a cold field
However far, you're never far, Gladys
Some things get left, some things get kept
I kept you, and I'm glad it's this

[Bridge]
Not every love needs shouting out
A dropped glove says enough, said plain
I don't need the whole big picture
Just you, still here, still mine to claim

[Chorus]
Gladys, you're the warm in a cold field
However far, you're never far, Gladys
Some things get left, some things get kept
I kept you, and I'm glad it's this

[Outro]
Somewhere that red is still on the grass
Somewhere I'm still glad I kept it
