  Verse 1

  Our feet are resting in the sand The tide has gone and left us here I feel no hurry, feel no fear With my hand tucked into your hand

  Chorus

  Beryl, you keep me steady Every doubt in me goes still There is no name I trust like this Beryl, you always will

  Verse 2

  I forget the cold when you are near Some comfort I cannot explain This quiet holds no trace of pain Just the kind of peace I hold dear

  Pre-chorus

  I have loved you plainly, loved you slow No grand words, just steady ground Something in me starts to grow

  Chorus

  Beryl, you keep me steady Every doubt in me goes still There is no name I trust like this Beryl, you always will

  Bridge

  Let the water take what it will take We are still here when it goes

  Chorus

  Beryl, you keep me steady Every doubt in me goes still There is no name I trust like this Beryl, you always will

  Outro

  Our feet still rest here in the sand I would stay if you would stay

  A quiet, steady love song about the small shared tasks that carry a whole life inside them, built around one plate held between two pairs of hands.

  Verse 1

  Water runs warm over both our hands One plate between us, nothing rare You take the weight before I understand How much I need you standing there

  Chorus

  Beryl, I would choose this every day Just you and me and something plain Nothing fancy, nothing far away Beryl, quiet love that still remains

  Verse 2

  Years could stack like dishes in a rack Still I'd reach for you the same Some loves fade the moment they look back Ours just learns to say your name

  Pre-chorus

  No grand words, no big reveal Just your hand still finding mine Something steady, something real

  Chorus

  Beryl, I would choose this every day Just you and me and something plain Nothing fancy, nothing far away Beryl, quiet love that still remains

  Bridge

  Not every love needs to shout to be true Some just rinse clean and stay I found my calm the day I found you Nothing sudden, come what may

  Chorus

  Beryl, I would choose this every day Just you and me and something plain Nothing fancy, nothing far away Beryl, quiet love that still remains

  Outro

  The water's cold now, we're still here Both hands on the plate, my dear

• Two Coats, One Lamp

  Jazz standard · Jazz · Upright bass · Crooner

  A quiet jazz standard about steady, unshowy love, built from one small moment outside a shop on a cold night. Good for any kind of love, new or long, that does not need to make a scene.

  Verse 1

  You stand so close I forget the cold Steam rising off both our coats I've held bigger nights than this one But none I'd trade for smaller notes

  Chorus

  Beryl, you're the warmth I lean toward No grand design, no perfect weather Some folks chase a bigger flame Beryl, I just want us close together

  Verse 2

  Shop light falling soft and yellow Catches you mid laugh, mid word You make the plainest evening golden Say my name, I'm glad I heard

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need the fireworks kind I need the standing still kind The kind that's building up to say

  Chorus

  Beryl, you're the warmth I lean toward No grand design, no perfect weather Some folks chase a bigger flame Beryl, I just want us close together

  Bridge

  Let the whole street empty out Let the last bus leave without us This is worth the waiting for

  Chorus

  Beryl, you're the warmth I lean toward No grand design, no perfect weather Some folks chase a bigger flame Beryl, I just want us close together

  Outro

  Two coats steaming, one lamp burning Beryl, that's enough for me
