Coat on the Bench
Style: Motown ballad

[Verse 1]
I left your coat there on the bench
Kept your seat while the crowds moved past
Trains kept coming, none of them mine
I was only ever waiting for you, Rory

[Pre-chorus]
Every platform looks the same to me now
Every whistle sounds like your name
So catch me before the doors close

[Chorus]
Rory, you're the one I count on
Steady as the rails I'm stood on
Nobody tells a story like you do
Rory, you're my quiet glory

[Verse 2]
You always run right up at the end
Coat half on, laughing at the wind
Some things never need to change
I'll keep your seat forever, Rory

[Pre-chorus]
Every platform looks the same to me now
Every whistle sounds like your name
So catch me before the doors close

[Chorus]
Rory, you're the one I count on
Steady as the rails I'm stood on
Nobody tells a story like you do
Rory, you're my quiet glory

[Bridge]
Some folk need the whole world watching
I just need you walking towards me
No grand station, no big speeches
Just you, showing up, that's enough

[Chorus]
Rory, you're the one I count on
Steady as the rails I'm stood on
Nobody tells a story like you do
Rory, you're my quiet glory

[Outro]
Your coat's still warm on that bench
I'll wait right here, love, however long
