Hard Pears
Style: Dream pop

[Verse 1]
You set the basket down so slow
Like the whole afternoon could show
Pears too hard to eat just yet
I watch you and I already know

[Pre-chorus]
You fold the napkin twice, not once
Careful with the smallest things
And I forget to breathe a beat
Waiting for what your quiet brings

[Chorus]
Todd, you make the ordinary hold
Some days feel like they turn to gold
Nothing here is rushed or loud
Todd, I'd choose this every time we're told

[Verse 2]
The napkins keep the shape of your hands
Longer than I thought cloth could
You never say the big soft words
You just stay, and somehow that's understood

[Bridge]
Let the pears stay hard a while
We don't need them ripe today
I've got you here on the short grass
That's enough to make me stay

[Chorus]
Todd, you make the ordinary hold
Some days feel like they turn to gold
Nothing here is rushed or loud
Todd, I'd choose this every time we're told

[Outro]
The basket's empty, we're still here
Todd, that's the whole story, clear
