Rattle and Rest
Style: Blues slow dance

[Verse 1]
Milk bottles knock on the concrete
Early light through the wire gate
I hear them and think of you steady
How you show up, never late

[Pre-chorus]
Leaves catch soft in the basket
Nothing forced, nothing needs to be
And I'm stood here holding my coffee
Wanting you closer to me

[Chorus]
Leon, you're the calm in my morning
Leon, you're the weight that stays true
Every small sound feels like a warning
That I'd be lost without you

[Verse 2]
Some nights we don't say a word
Just the kettle and the hum of the light
You reach for my hand like a habit
And it still feels brand new tonight

[Chorus]
Leon, you're the calm in my morning
Leon, you're the weight that stays true
Every small sound feels like a warning
That I'd be lost without you

[Bridge]
No fireworks, just this quiet room
Just your breathing keeping time
I've stopped waiting for the grand gesture
You were it, all along, all mine

[Chorus]
Leon, you're the calm in my morning
Leon, you're the weight that stays true
Every small sound feels like a warning
That I'd be lost without you

[Outro]
The bottles will empty, then fill again
And I'll still be right here with you
