  Verse 1

  You split the roll in two again Folded the paper down to the seam Never once counted who had more That's how I learned what your love could mean

  Pre-chorus

  Small things you do without a sound Never asking to be found Building something safe and keen

  Chorus

  Dean, you keep the world from spinning wild Steady as a hand, gentle as a child I have never needed to be seen Long as I've got you here, Dean

  Verse 2

  Grease soaked through the paper thin Nothing fancy, we just tucked right in You always give the bigger share Like it costs you nothing to care

  Pre-chorus

  Small things you do without a sound Never asking to be found Building something safe and keen

  Chorus

  Dean, you keep the world from spinning wild Steady as a hand, gentle as a child I have never needed to be seen Long as I've got you here, Dean

  Bridge

  No one else would notice this How you hand me half like it's no loss This is how I know it's real Not the words, but how you make me feel

  Chorus

  Dean, you keep the world from spinning wild Steady as a hand, gentle as a child I have never needed to be seen Long as I've got you here, Dean

  Outro

  Fold the paper, keep the crease Half a roll and I'm at peace

  Verse 1

  Wind is pulling at the railing Orange jackets stacked up tight Everything out here keeps moving But you hold steady in my sight

  Pre-chorus

  I keep looking for the words Something plain that still feels true There's a calm that comes with knowing

  Chorus

  Dean, you keep me on the green Steady when the wind gets mean Nothing fancy, nothing keen Just the calm that you have been, Dean

  Verse 2

  Some days loud and some days quiet Doesn't matter which we've seen You're the one thing I come back to Out of everywhere I've been

  Chorus

  Dean, you keep me on the green Steady when the wind gets mean Nothing fancy, nothing keen Just the calm that you have been, Dean

  Bridge

  No need to shout it from a height No need to make a scene I just want to stand here with you However long that means

  Chorus

  Dean, you keep me on the green Steady when the wind gets mean Nothing fancy, nothing keen Just the calm that you have been, Dean

  Outro

  Let the wind keep pulling at the railing I'm not going anywhere from here

  Verse 1

  Streetlamp caught the wet handles bright Bicycles leaned by the iron gate light I stood there waiting, not sure what to say You came round the corner and made it feel right

  Pre-chorus

  I have known plain evenings before Nothing much happened, nothing much more Then you walked up and I wanted a whole lot more

  Chorus

  Dean, you steady me like nothing has There is no rush, there is no fuss with you, Dean You make the ordinary scene Feel like the best one I have seen

  Verse 2

  Rain kept falling soft on the street Nothing about that night was neat I watched you laugh at something small And thought, this is the one thing I need

  Bridge

  Some loves shout and some loves lean I will take the quiet kind with you, Dean Not every good thing has to be keen Some just settle in and stay clean

  Chorus

  Dean, you steady me like nothing has There is no rush, there is no fuss with you, Dean You make the ordinary scene Feel like the best one I have seen

  Outro

  Wet handles still shine by that gate You are still the one I am glad I did not miss, Dean
