  Verse 1

  I stood where the wet steps turn watching what the branches let fall and something in me settled there knowing you're the one thing I don't spurn

  Pre-chorus

  Seasons come and try to take you every year they think they can but I'm not letting go, Aspen

  Chorus

  Aspen, you stay when the leaves don't you hold on when the rest won't funny how the quiet ones remain Aspen, I love the way you won't

  Verse 2

  Some things fall and some things deepen I've watched you do the second kind you never needed noise to prove it you just stayed while the light kept steepen'

  Bridge

  Let the branches empty out let the whole world lose its leaves I'll still know exactly where you are that's the only thing I need

  Chorus

  Aspen, you stay when the leaves don't you hold on when the rest won't funny how the quiet ones remain Aspen, I love the way you won't

  Outro

  Come spring the steps will dry out clean but I'll still remember what stayed green

  Verse 1

  Iron railings gone to rust two cups cooling on the bench still I feel you next to me closer than the cold could wrench

  Pre-chorus

  Nothing fancy in this town just your hand and this old seat but my heart won't settle down

  Chorus

  Aspen, you're the reason I stay every ordinary day something in you makes it deepen and I won't be looking away

  Verse 2

  Paint is peeling off the rail paper cups have gone all cold but you laugh the same as ever worth more to me than gold

  Bridge

  Let the whole world rust around us I don't need it shining new long as I can sit right here talking quiet next to you

  Chorus

  Aspen, you're the reason I stay every ordinary day something in you makes it deepen and I won't be looking away

  Outro

  Leave the cups there on the bench you're the one I'm keeping

  Verse 1

  Under lights that buzz and hum I found the thing my heart was after You were choosing which soup to buy And somehow that became my laughter

  Pre-chorus

  I wasn't looking for anything grand No thunder, no big plan Just you, and how the moment could deepen

  Chorus

  Aspen, you make the ordinary hum Aspen, you turn a Tuesday into something Every plain thing starts to happen When you're near, the quiet starts to deepen

  Verse 2

  Trolleys squeak like a broken song But I don't mind, I sing along You reach for the shelf up high I watch you like you're the reason why

  Pre-chorus

  I wasn't looking for anything grand No thunder, no big plan Just you, and how the moment could deepen

  Chorus

  Aspen, you make the ordinary hum Aspen, you turn a Tuesday into something Every plain thing starts to happen When you're near, the quiet starts to deepen

  Bridge

  No candlelight, no fancy show Just fluorescent glow and you, and I know This is the love that doesn't flatten It only grows, it only happens

  Chorus

  Aspen, you make the ordinary hum Aspen, you turn a Tuesday into something Every plain thing starts to happen When you're near, the quiet starts to deepen

  Outro

  Still under lights that hum and stay I'd choose this aisle with you, any day
