Four Tins of Soup
Style: Irish air

[Verse 1]
Four tins of soup stacked crooked
next to a box of parsley
nothing about it was tidy
but you made it look easy

[Pre-chorus]
I watch you in the small things
the way you hum while you're working
something is building in me

[Chorus]
Jane, you steady me like nothing else can
you're the calm behind my eyes
plain as bread and twice as kind
Jane, you never needed to try

[Verse 2]
You never asked to be easy
you just always were
the parsley wilting in its box
you didn't seem to care

[Bridge]
I've loved you in the ordinary
in the mess we never planned
this is not a grand thing
it's just you, close at hand

[Chorus]
Jane, you steady me like nothing else can
you're the calm behind my eyes
plain as bread and twice as kind
Jane, you never needed to try

[Outro]
Those tins are long since eaten
but you're still here, still mine
