The Same Yellow Sponge
Style: Soul waltz

[Verse 1]
You hand me the sponge again
water running past your hand
nothing said that needs a word
this is how the days are stirred

[Pre-chorus]
Some folk want the fireworks part
I just want your steady heart
standing near me at the sink

[Chorus]
Presley, you're the calm I keep
not the kind of love that's loud
just the kind that doesn't sleep
Presley, quiet, standing proud

[Verse 2]
Your sleeves rolled up past the wrist
suds gone cold, we don't dismiss
one more plate before we're done
this is easy, this is fun

[Chorus]
Presley, you're the calm I keep
not the kind of love that's loud
just the kind that doesn't sleep
Presley, quiet, standing proud

[Bridge]
No one's watching, that's the point
small and steady, not disjoint
every dish we pass between us
says the thing that always seasons

[Chorus]
Presley, you're the calm I keep
not the kind of love that's loud
just the kind that doesn't sleep
Presley, quiet, standing proud

[Outro]
Sponge goes yellow, water's through
still my hand will reach for you
