Back Step
Style: Piano ballad

[Verse 1]
The kettle clicks off behind us
Cold air finds where your coat missed
You pass the mug without asking
I take it, and that's the whole ask

[Pre-chorus]
I could sit here till the light goes
No need to fill up the quiet
This is the part I keep coming back for

[Chorus]
Ivy, you make the small hours count
Nothing fancy, just this amount
Ivy, I'd choose this step each time
Your name still lands soft as a rhyme

[Verse 2]
The garden's gone to weeds and shadow
You laugh about the state of it
I watch you more than what you're pointing at
There's nowhere else I'd rather sit

[Pre-chorus]
I could sit here till the light goes
No need to fill up the quiet
This is the part I keep coming back for

[Chorus]
Ivy, you make the small hours count
Nothing fancy, just this amount
Ivy, I'd choose this step each time
Your name still lands soft as a rhyme

[Bridge]
No grand plans, no big reveal
Just you, close enough to feel
This is how I know it's true

[Chorus]
Ivy, you make the small hours count
Nothing fancy, just this amount
Ivy, I'd choose this step each time
Your name still lands soft as a rhyme

[Outro]
The kettle's long gone cold now
Still, I'm glad you're here somehow
