  Verse 1

  You hold the bottle up to the light Steady hands, nothing to prove tonight Paper crackles while the parcels get wrapped You hum a tune that I never mapped

  Pre-chorus

  No grand plans, just this small room No need to chase what's coming soon Something's building, soft and slow

  Chorus

  Bobby, you make the plain things shine This little kitchen, this old vinegar wine Nobody else could turn a Friday this way Bobby, I want you here every day

  Verse 2

  You set the bottle down like it's gold Nothing dramatic, nothing bold Just the sound of string being tied And the warmth I feel standing by your side

  Pre-chorus

  No grand plans, just this small room No need to chase what's coming soon Something's building, soft and slow

  Chorus

  Bobby, you make the plain things shine This little kitchen, this old vinegar wine Nobody else could turn a Friday this way Bobby, I want you here every day

  Bridge

  I've loved you loud, I've loved you still This quiet kind might be the real deal No performance, no need to try

  Chorus

  Bobby, you make the plain things shine This little kitchen, this old vinegar wine Nobody else could turn a Friday this way Bobby, I want you here every day

  Outro

  The bottle's back up on its shelf I still see the light in it myself

• Wet Gravel

  Irish air · Irish · Whistle · Lilting

  A quiet Irish air about steady, plain love, walking home in the dark with someone who never needs the lights on to be found. Good for new love, old love, or the kind that just keeps going.

  Verse 1

  Wet gravel crunching where we walk Oak branches dripping, dark and slow I know this road with my eyes closed But it's your voice that does the talk

  Pre-chorus

  No moon tonight to light the way But I don't need it, come what may My feet know where you're going to stay

  Chorus

  Bobby, you're the steady sound I know The one true thing this whole road shows Some nights are dark, some nights are cold But Bobby, I'm not letting go

  Verse 2

  The branches shake their heavy rain You laugh and pull me out from under I've walked this path in joy and pain But never once have felt the wonder

  Pre-chorus

  No moon tonight to light the way But I don't need it, come what may My feet know where you're going to stay

  Chorus

  Bobby, you're the steady sound I know The one true thing this whole road shows Some nights are dark, some nights are cold But Bobby, I'm not letting go

  Bridge

  Let the branches drip their rain down slow Let the gravel keep its rhythm going I'll take the dark if you're the glow Right beside me, quiet, knowing

  Chorus

  Bobby, you're the steady sound I know The one true thing this whole road shows Some nights are dark, some nights are cold But Bobby, I'm not letting go

  Outro

  Wet gravel crunching, soft and slow Still walking home with you, I know

  Verse 1

  I watched the grass bend by the fence leaning hard against the wire you never once made a big defence you just stayed, and asked no higher

  Pre-chorus

  I used to think love needed proof something loud to make it true but you just kept on holding root

  Chorus

  Bobby, you're the calm I lean on steady when the wind gets wild Bobby, when the daylight's gone you're the reason I still smile

  Verse 2

  Water sits so still and grey out past the fence, beyond the field and you have loved me the same way quiet, constant, never sealed

  Pre-chorus

  I used to think love needed proof something loud to make it true but you just kept on holding root

  Chorus

  Bobby, you're the calm I lean on steady when the wind gets wild Bobby, when the daylight's gone you're the reason I still smile

  Bridge

  No one ever taught me this how quiet turns to keep how a hand can hold like this and never ask what love should be

  Chorus

  Bobby, you're the calm I lean on steady when the wind gets wild Bobby, when the daylight's gone you're the reason I still smile

  Outro

  The grass still bends against that wire you're still the one I'm leaning near
