  Verse 1

  Two mugs steaming on the table Bills stacked neat beside the light Nothing here is much to look at But you make the plain hours bright

  Pre-chorus

  I've counted every kind of morning Some were heavy, some were thin But every single one gets better

  Chorus

  Ember, you're the warmth I lean on Steady as the month September Through the noise you keep me tender Ember, I will still remember

  Verse 2

  The coffee's cold before we finish Talking through the bills again There's no grand thing I can promise Just that you make sense of when

  Chorus

  Ember, you're the warmth I lean on Steady as the month September Through the noise you keep me tender Ember, I will still remember

  Bridge

  No need to be a hero for you Just here, just steady, just this true Some loves burn loud and then surrender Mine just stays, low and sure, like embers

  Chorus

  Ember, you're the warmth I lean on Steady as the month September Through the noise you keep me tender Ember, I will still remember

  Outro

  Two mugs still steaming on the table This is all the love I render

  Verse 1

  Dusty sleeves slide back into place one by one, without a sound I keep you the way I keep these careful, and always around

  Pre-chorus

  Nothing here gets left to fade every worn edge finds its home I'm still learning how to say

  Chorus

  Ember, you're the one I remember long after the room goes still you're the warmth I never surrender the hand I reach for at will

  Verse 2

  Some things wear soft with the years you only shine a little more I could name every reason why but you're the one I'm reaching for

  Chorus

  Ember, you're the one I remember long after the room goes still you're the warmth I never surrender the hand I reach for at will

  Bridge

  Even quiet, you're never far even still, you move through me some kind of low and constant spark

  Chorus

  Ember, you're the one I remember long after the room goes still you're the warmth I never surrender the hand I reach for at will

  Outro

  One more sleeve slides into place you're the one I keep, always

  Verse 1

  The ruts froze hard beneath that sky White ridges no one can untie I walked that field with nothing planned And found your name there in the land

  Chorus

  Ember, you're the one I remember Warm in the cold of December You steady me when I turn tender Ember, my heart still won't surrender

  Verse 2

  That low sun barely cleared the trees But still it warmed me, if you please You do that too without a sound You thaw what winter made so bound

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need seasons to feel sure I've watched you through the coldest door And still I'm reaching for

  Chorus

  Ember, you're the one I remember Warm in the cold of December You steady me when I turn tender Ember, my heart still won't surrender

  Bridge

  Some things freeze and some things hold You're the warmth inside the cold No grand words, just this plain truth You're the constant of my youth

  Chorus

  Ember, you're the one I remember Warm in the cold of December You steady me when I turn tender Ember, my heart still won't surrender

  Outro

  The ruts will thaw when spring comes round But you're the warmth I've always found
