Gravel and Grey
Style: Indie folk

[Verse 1]
The walk home takes us longer now
Boots scraping slow across the stones
Brick walls giving up their warmth
You laugh and it settles in my bones

[Pre-chorus]
Streetlights catching on your sleeve
Nothing here we need to chase
This is the hour I believe

[Chorus]
Paula, you're the calm I chose
Every quiet street knows your name
Paula, walking slow beside me
You make the dark feel tame

[Verse 2]
Cold brick giving back the day
You kick a stone across the lane
Your shoulder bumping into mine
Simple as the falling rain

[Pre-chorus]
Streetlights catching on your sleeve
Nothing here we need to chase
This is the hour I believe

[Chorus]
Paula, you're the calm I chose
Every quiet street knows your name
Paula, walking slow beside me
You make the dark feel tame

[Bridge]
No grand words, just this instead
Your hand finding mine again
Every wall we pass has heard
How steady this has always been

[Chorus]
Paula, you're the calm I chose
Every quiet street knows your name
Paula, walking slow beside me
You make the dark feel tame

[Outro]
Brick walls cooling, boots gone still
You're the warmth that stays behind
