Crusts and Gingham
Style: Country waltz

[Verse 1]
We left the crusts beside the basket
Green gingham spread beneath the sun
You handed me the heel of bread
Some habit we never plan to lose

[Chorus]
Jane, you make the plain days easy
Nothing fancy, nothing rushed
There's a calm that comes with sitting near you
Jane, I'd choose this over gold again

[Verse 2]
The birds came for what we left behind
You laughed and brushed the crumbs away
I watched your hands instead of sky
Happy just to stay right where we lay

[Pre-chorus]
No one's writing songs about a picnic
But something in this quiet holds me still
I feel it building, plain and true

[Chorus]
Jane, you make the plain days easy
Nothing fancy, nothing rushed
There's a calm that comes with sitting near you
Jane, I'd choose this over gold again

[Bridge]
Some folks need the mountain and the view
I just need the basket and the grass
Some folks chase a feeling that won't stay
I already found it, sitting here with you

[Chorus]
Jane, you make the plain days easy
Nothing fancy, nothing rushed
There's a calm that comes with sitting near you
Jane, I'd choose this over gold again

[Outro]
The crusts are gone, the basket's empty
Still I wouldn't trade a single crumb
