Old Mint Wrappers
Style: Indie folk

[Verse 1]
Toll tickets curling in the dashboard light
Wrappers from a mint we shared
You kept the change from every drive
Nothing thrown out, nothing spared

[Pre-chorus]
I never plan to keep this stuff
But somehow none of it gets tossed
Because it all still smells like you

[Chorus]
Zayd, you're the reason I don't clear it out
Every scrap still says your name
Zayd, I'd know your hand in half the dark
You leave your mark, and I'm not the same

[Verse 2]
That receipt is from the night it rained
We sat and let the engine run
You laughed until the windows steamed
Longest hour, over too soon

[Chorus]
Zayd, you're the reason I don't clear it out
Every scrap still says your name
Zayd, I'd know your hand in half the dark
You leave your mark, and I'm not the same

[Bridge]
Some people travel light and free
I'd rather carry all of this
The clutter is the closeness, love
A hundred small unfinished trips

[Chorus]
Zayd, you're the reason I don't clear it out
Every scrap still says your name
Zayd, I'd know your hand in half the dark
You leave your mark, and I'm not the same

[Outro]
One day I'll empty out that pocket
But not the one that you have made
