  Verse 1

  Two tickets caught beneath the rust forgotten there since we were young I kept mine folded in my coat you kept yours longer than I'd guessed

  Pre-chorus

  We never planned to keep the proof some nights I think that's all we have but holding on was never the hard part

  Chorus

  Cerys, you're the one I chose again every morning, not just then stay as steady as a held hand Cerys, I would choose you again

  Verse 2

  The paint has gone from green to grey the bench still holds the shape we made you laugh about it every time like nothing here has ever changed

  Pre-chorus

  We never planned to keep the proof some nights I think that's all we have but holding on was never the hard part

  Chorus

  Cerys, you're the one I chose again every morning, not just then stay as steady as a held hand Cerys, I would choose you again

  Bridge

  I don't need the ticket to remember only need you sitting here

  Chorus

  Cerys, you're the one I chose again every morning, not just then stay as steady as a held hand Cerys, I would choose you again

  Outro

  Someone else will find that bench let them wonder who we were

  Verse 1

  The mug outside has lost its shine Still it sits there, somehow mine Damp step, cold air, first light of day And I think of you straight away

  Chorus

  Cerys, you're the warmth I keep Cerys, even when I sleep You're the thought that starts my morning No alarm, no need for warning

  Verse 2

  I could leave that mug behind But it's you I always find In the small and broken things In the quiet, love still sings

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need the grand or loud Don't need proving to a crowd Just this feeling, rising, true

  Chorus

  Cerys, you're the warmth I keep Cerys, even when I sleep You're the thought that starts my morning No alarm, no need for warning

  Bridge

  No one sees what I see here How you steady every year Plain as coffee, strong as stone You're the best thing I have known

  Chorus

  Cerys, you're the warmth I keep Cerys, even when I sleep You're the thought that starts my morning No alarm, no need for warning

  Outro

  That mug still waits out on the step Like this love, it hasn't left

  Verse 1

  Grey smoke curls up through the willow the embers settle low and red I watch the evening find its pillow and think of every word you said

  Pre-chorus

  You never asked to be the flame just stayed and let the warmth begin and now I can't say where the same

  Chorus

  Cerys, you're the calm in my chest the low light when the day grows old Cerys, quiet outshines the rest you're the ember, not the cold

  Verse 2

  The branches bend but never break they've learned the trick of holding on I know the ways my heart can shake and still it steadies once you're home

  Pre-chorus

  You never asked to be the flame just stayed and let the warmth begin and now I can't say where the same

  Chorus

  Cerys, you're the calm in my chest the low light when the day grows old Cerys, quiet outshines the rest you're the ember, not the cold

  Bridge

  No need for smoke signals or noise just this, just steady, just true some loves arrive with all their poise mine simply learned to burn near you

  Chorus

  Cerys, you're the calm in my chest the low light when the day grows old Cerys, quiet outshines the rest you're the ember, not the cold

  Outro

  The smoke has cleared, the willow's still and I am warmer than I know
