  Verse 1

  Your sleeve is resting close to mine Nobody wrote this scene down Two elbows on an old spine Quiet as a sleepy town

  Chorus

  Agnes, I could sit here for days Nothing about you stagnates Steady is its own kind of praise You're the one my whole heart trusts

  Verse 2

  We never said a single word Pages hold our weight just fine Somehow this is all I've wanted Your hand a breath from mine

  Pre-chorus

  I've loved you loud, I've loved you slow This is the hush I didn't know And it's building, soft, to something

  Chorus

  Agnes, I could sit here for days Nothing about you stagnates Steady is its own kind of praise You're the one my whole heart trusts

  Bridge

  No grand gesture, just this weight Your sleeve against mine, patient This is what I meant by love

  Chorus

  Agnes, I could sit here for days Nothing about you stagnates Steady is its own kind of praise You're the one my whole heart trusts

  Outro

  Close the books, the light is fading Your sleeve is still right there

  Verse 1

  Morning comes in grey and slow Salt has dried along the rail You put your coffee down beside me That's the whole of how I know

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need the sun to show it Don't need words to make it true I just need this quiet minute

  Chorus

  Agnes, you're the calm I lean on Steady as the tide gone still Some loves shout and some just settle Agnes, you're the one that will

  Verse 2

  I've watched the weather change on you Never once saw you turn hard Some folks rust like an old railing You just wear the years right through

  Bridge

  Doesn't matter if it's new love Doesn't matter if it's old This is the kind that keeps the warmth in Long after the morning's cold

  Chorus

  Agnes, you're the calm I lean on Steady as the tide gone still Some loves shout and some just settle Agnes, you're the one that will

  Outro

  Let the grey sky do its worst Salt still holds where love dried first

  Verse 1

  I sit here waiting for your car watching the wet road catch the stars every set of lights that turns makes my whole chest ache and burn

  Chorus

  Agnes, you're the one I trust when the light sweeps through the dust steady as the ground below Agnes, you're the truth I know

  Verse 2

  You pull in slow between the vans headlights caught on both your hands and I forget the cold, the wait you're the thing that never stagnates

  Pre-chorus

  I've loved you plain, I've loved you long never needed a bigger song just this quiet, just this light

  Chorus

  Agnes, you're the one I trust when the light sweeps through the dust steady as the ground below Agnes, you're the truth I know

  Bridge

  No grand words, no big scene just you, steady in between every pass of passing light finds you constant, finds you right

  Chorus

  Agnes, you're the one I trust when the light sweeps through the dust steady as the ground below Agnes, you're the truth I know

  Outro

  Still I'll wait here in the dark for your headlights, for your spark
