Two Cups on the Table
Style: Acoustic soul

[Verse 1]
The morning's slow and neither of us move
Two mugs are touching near the paper mess
You laugh at something small I said
And I forget what I was going to confess

[Chorus]
Maeve, you make the quiet hold together
Papers scattered, cups gone cold
Maeve, I'd choose this over any weather
This is worth more than the stories told

[Verse 2]
Receipts pile up like all our little days
Nothing on them we would ever save
But your hand rests so close to mine
Steady as a coastline holding back a wave

[Pre-chorus]
No one's clearing off this table yet
Nothing here we're rushing to erase
Something in this mess I don't forget

[Chorus]
Maeve, you make the quiet hold together
Papers scattered, cups gone cold
Maeve, I'd choose this over any weather
This is worth more than the stories told

[Bridge]
Some kind of love needs proving every day
Ours just sits here, doesn't need to shout
I'll take the steam that's fading anyway
Over anything louder I could live without

[Chorus]
Maeve, you make the quiet hold together
Papers scattered, cups gone cold
Maeve, I'd choose this over any weather
This is worth more than the stories told

[Outro]
Let the papers sit however they land
Just leave your mug there, touching mine again
