On the Step
Style: Doo wop

[Verse 1]
Two bottles on a cold brick step
waiting there for the morning light
you left your warmth beside my door
and now you're always in my sight

[Chorus]
Lola, you're the calm I lean on
steady as the break of day
every road I take leads homeward
Lola, you're the reason I stay

[Verse 2]
We don't need much to feel like plenty
just a doorstep and a little time
you hum some old forgotten melody
and somehow it turns into mine

[Pre-chorus]
I've counted all the ways you love me
quiet ones that no one sees
and every single one is pulling

[Chorus]
Lola, you're the calm I lean on
steady as the break of day
every road I take leads homeward
Lola, you're the reason I stay

[Bridge]
No need for anything grand or loud
just you beside me, plain and true
doesn't matter what the weather brings
I'd choose this step, I'd choose you

[Chorus]
Lola, you're the calm I lean on
steady as the break of day
every road I take leads homeward
Lola, you're the reason I stay

[Outro]
Two bottles standing on the step
still there together in the cold
