Bread and Wool
Style: Chamber folk

[Verse 1]
A crust of bread beside an apple
just resting there on old grey wool
nothing fancy, nothing golden
that's how I keep you, Jacob, close and full

[Pre-chorus]
I never needed the grand or golden
I just needed something steady
and steady is the way you build a home

[Chorus]
Jacob, you're the calm inside my waking
you're the hand that keeps me from being shaken
you don't ask for more than what is true
and that quiet love is never taken

[Verse 2]
Some folk want the bright and burning
I just want you sitting near
plain as bread beside an apple
that's the kind of love I hold most dear

[Bridge]
No performance, no display
just you, staying, day by day

[Chorus]
Jacob, you're the calm inside my waking
you're the hand that keeps me from being shaken
you don't ask for more than what is true
and that quiet love is never taken

[Outro]
Still that bread, still that apple
still you, Jacob, still enough
