  Verse 1

  I watched the pears give up their hold Falling soft where the grass grows old Nobody told them the ground was close I thought of you before I was told

  Chorus

  Diego, you're the weight I chose to carry Not a burden, never wary Something in you refused to let go Diego, still the one I won't let go

  Verse 2

  Some things fall and start to rot You stayed ripe in every spot I kept you closer than I should have said Love like yours, I never once forgot

  Pre-chorus

  I've seen sweetness turn to waste Seen it happen, seen it chased But you don't fade no matter how the light goes

  Chorus

  Diego, you're the weight I chose to carry Not a burden, never wary Something in you refused to let go Diego, still the one I won't let go

  Bridge

  Let the branch bend low with you on it I won't flinch, I won't regret it Every fall you've had, I caught you slow That's the only kind of love I know

  Chorus

  Diego, you're the weight I chose to carry Not a burden, never wary Something in you refused to let go Diego, still the one I won't let go

  Outro

  The grass is soft where good things land I'm glad you fell right in my hand

  Verse 1

  Two wool socks out on the wire Nothing fancy, nothing new Just hanging there through every weather That's how I feel when I'm with you

  Pre-chorus

  Simple things can hold on tight No need to shout it, no big show Something steady, something right

  Chorus

  Diego, you're the calm I choose Not the tango, not the show Just this steady thing between us Diego, I don't want to let go

  Verse 2

  Wind can pull at everything Some things still refuse to go You're the sock that stays clipped tightly When the weather turns to snow

  Pre-chorus

  Simple things can hold on tight No need to shout it, no big show Something steady, something right

  Chorus

  Diego, you're the calm I choose Not the tango, not the show Just this steady thing between us Diego, I don't want to let go

  Bridge

  Some loves burn like fireworks do Mine just hangs here, plain and true I'm not looking for Chicago I'm just looking straight at you

  Chorus

  Diego, you're the calm I choose Not the tango, not the show Just this steady thing between us Diego, I don't want to let go

  Outro

  Two wool socks still on that wire Still there, however the winds blow

  Verse 1

  I know the track before I look you find the way I overlook your steps are certain, sure and slow and I trust wherever you go

  Chorus

  Diego, you're the path I chose the way the quiet gladness grows no map could hold what I feel now Diego, you still show me how

  Verse 2

  The gorse can hide the way ahead but you walk on with steady tread I follow, never think it strange you make the hard ground feel like grace

  Pre-chorus

  I've walked this ground a hundred times but never tire of how it winds because you're waiting at the end

  Chorus

  Diego, you're the path I chose the way the quiet gladness grows no map could hold what I feel now Diego, you still show me how

  Bridge

  Some loves are loud, some fade too fast but you're the kind that's built to last no letting go, no turning back

  Chorus

  Diego, you're the path I chose the way the quiet gladness grows no map could hold what I feel now Diego, you still show me how

  Outro

  I'll walk this track till both feet know it still glad it led me straight to you, Diego
