  Verse 1

  Two yellow coats against the rail Waiting out the storm, not stale You hang yours right next to mine Nothing planned, just how we align

  Chorus

  Abel, you're the steady kind Simple love, I don't mind Weather comes and weather goes Abel, you're the one I chose

  Verse 2

  Rain comes down and we don't run Standing here, this feels like home You reach over, take my hand Some things a person understands

  Pre-chorus

  I've counted every quiet year Nothing loud, nothing severe Just you, still here, and getting near

  Chorus

  Abel, you're the steady kind Simple love, I don't mind Weather comes and weather goes Abel, you're the one I chose

  Bridge

  Not every love needs thunder Some just grow, and we're no wonder Still I'd pick this every time You're the calm, and I am fine

  Chorus

  Abel, you're the steady kind Simple love, I don't mind Weather comes and weather goes Abel, you're the one I chose

  Outro

  Two yellow coats against the rail Still hanging there, and never stale

  Verse 1

  I left the thermos on the table Blue against the morning light Half an orange there beside it Peeled the way you like it right

  Chorus

  Abel, you are steady as the sunrise Chosen every single day Abel, I would know your footsteps In a hundred other ways

  Verse 2

  Some folks need the noise to feel it I just need you in the room Small things say the words I'm holding Coffee steam and orange bloom

  Pre-chorus

  I am not one for shouting Love out loud for all to hear But watch me set two cups down

  Chorus

  Abel, you are steady as the sunrise Chosen every single day Abel, I would know your footsteps In a hundred other ways

  Bridge

  Nothing fancy, nothing new Just this table, just this view Just the two of us again Still worth choosing, now and then

  Chorus

  Abel, you are steady as the sunrise Chosen every single day Abel, I would know your footsteps In a hundred other ways

  Outro

  I'll leave the thermos on the table Save the other half for you

  Verse 1

  You left your mark on this cracked old mug Just by standing there next to mine Nothing fancy, no grand, sweeping hug Just two brushes leaned in a line

  Pre-chorus

  I never thought small things could hold so much I never thought a mug could feel like home But every proof of you, I need that touch

  Chorus

  Abel, you're the one I reach for first Water running, morning light and you Abel, you're the thirst behind my thirst Steady as the things that still stay true

  Verse 2

  You leave the cap off, I don't even mind Small mess that says you're really here I used to drink alone, now I find Sharing the sink with you, I've got no fear

  Pre-chorus

  I never thought small things could hold so much I never thought a mug could feel like home But every proof of you, I need that touch

  Chorus

  Abel, you're the one I reach for first Water running, morning light and you Abel, you're the thirst behind my thirst Steady as the things that still stay true

  Bridge

  Some nights I just watch you rinse and grin No words needed, none at all This is where the real love has always been

  Chorus

  Abel, you're the one I reach for first Water running, morning light and you Abel, you're the thirst behind my thirst Steady as the things that still stay true

  Outro

  Two brushes leaning in that same old mug That's still how I know I'm loved
