Green Marker
Style: Gospel soul

[Verse 1]
A green marker sits between the pages
holding open where we stopped
weight of all that heavy paper
light because you're what I've got

[Chorus]
Rebecca, you're the page I keep open
Rebecca, you're the word I return to
meanings shift and pages yellow
nothing changes what is true

[Verse 2]
Dust collects on older covers
corners bent from years of use
still you find the one that matters
still you know just what to choose

[Pre-chorus]
Every book has its lost places
spines that crack and pages torn
but you keep finding your way back to

[Chorus]
Rebecca, you're the page I keep open
Rebecca, you're the word I return to
meanings shift and pages yellow
nothing changes what is true

[Bridge]
Some love shouts and some love whispers
mine just marks the place and waits
you don't need the grand gesture
quiet holds the heaviest weight

[Chorus]
Rebecca, you're the page I keep open
Rebecca, you're the word I return to
meanings shift and pages yellow
nothing changes what is true

[Outro]
Close the book, the marker holds it
right where we left off, with you
