  Verse 1

  Kitchen's loud but I found the stove Bottle sweats in my hand, I don't go Everyone's talking, I'm watching your face You laugh and the whole room finds its place

  Chorus

  Elizabeth, you're the one I came for Every party, you're what I'm here for Say your name and something settles in my chest Elizabeth, you're the calm and the rest

  Verse 2

  Cold glass drips down onto my hand You're across the room, I understand Nobody else has to know it yet This is the safest bet I've met

  Pre-chorus

  I could stand here all night long Let the noise turn into a song Just need you to look this way instead

  Chorus

  Elizabeth, you're the one I came for Every party, you're what I'm here for Say your name and something settles in my chest Elizabeth, you're the calm and the rest

  Bridge

  Doesn't matter how long we've got New or old, you're all I want Steady hands, steady heart, steady breath Every version of you, every depth

  Chorus

  Elizabeth, you're the one I came for Every party, you're what I'm here for Say your name and something settles in my chest Elizabeth, you're the calm and the rest

  Outro

  Bottle's warm now, kitchen's cleared Still the only face I need near

  Verse 1

  Bubbles gather round the drain Taking their time to go I watch them thin and disappear You never rush me, and I love that so

  Pre-chorus

  Some things vanish fast and loud Some things linger, some things stay You're the kind that stays with me

  Chorus

  Elizabeth, you steady my breath I'd choose you slow, right up to death Some loves rush in, some settle deep You're the depth I keep instead

  Verse 2

  I turn the tap off, watch it settle Quiet fills the room again You sit close, you don't need talking That's when I love you plainest, then

  Bridge

  Not every love needs saying loud Mine just wants to stay right here Beth, you make the ordinary count You make the quiet feel like years

  Chorus

  Elizabeth, you steady my breath I'd choose you slow, right up to death Some loves rush in, some settle deep You're the depth I keep instead

  Outro

  Last bubble goes without a sound You're still here, and I'm still found

  Verse 1

  A yellow stub left on the bench Caught the wind and would not leave I watched it there and thought of you How you stay when I still grieve

  Chorus

  Elizabeth, you keep me steady Every station, every breath Nothing loud, just always ready That's the calm of Elizabeth

  Verse 2

  Trains keep leaving, we do not Some things settle, choose their depth You're the one thing I have got That never runs, that never left

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need the grand or wide Just this platform, just this bench Just you standing by my side

  Chorus

  Elizabeth, you keep me steady Every station, every breath Nothing loud, just always ready That's the calm of Elizabeth

  Bridge

  Paper fades but you don't fade Colours run but you don't run Some loves flicker, ours has stayed Quiet as the setting sun

  Chorus

  Elizabeth, you keep me steady Every station, every breath Nothing loud, just always ready That's the calm of Elizabeth

  Outro

  Some ticket stub against green iron Still holding on, and so am I
