Two Mugs on the Steps
Style: Blues slow dance

[Verse 1]
Rain came down and no one moved
Two mugs cooling, nothing to prove
You sat close, you let the hush stay
I never wanted the rain to stray

[Pre-chorus]
I keep thinking how quiet you make it
How you hold a moment, never break it
Something's rising, I won't fight the pull

[Chorus]
Maurice, you're the calm I found
Steady as the wet concrete ground
Maurice, I'm not looking for release
Just you, close, and my heart's own peace

[Verse 2]
Morning steam has long gone thin
You stayed anyway, you let me in
Two cups empty, side by side
That's how I feel, nothing to hide

[Pre-chorus]
I keep thinking how quiet you make it
How you hold a moment, never break it
Something's rising, I won't fight the pull

[Chorus]
Maurice, you're the calm I found
Steady as the wet concrete ground
Maurice, I'm not looking for release
Just you, close, and my heart's own peace

[Bridge]
No grand words, no masterpiece
Just steps worn smooth, a slow increase
You didn't ask, you just stayed near
That's the whole of it, plain and clear

[Chorus]
Maurice, you're the calm I found
Steady as the wet concrete ground
Maurice, I'm not looking for release
Just you, close, and my heart's own peace

[Outro]
Rain or not, I'd sit here still
Two mugs cold, and my heart full
