Verse 1
Grass is catching on my boots tangled up in dusty roots you keep climbing, don't look back sure and steady on the track
Pre-chorus
I could lose the path up here lose the light as dusk draws near but I know you're always close
Chorus
Esme, you're the reason I keep going fields on fire, gold and glowing Esme, nothing here is ever hazy when you're near, the whole world's easy
Verse 2
Wind is moving through the field something in me finally healed you don't rush and you don't wait just walk on like it's not late
Chorus
Esme, you're the reason I keep going fields on fire, gold and glowing Esme, nothing here is ever hazy when you're near, the whole world's easy
Bridge
Doesn't matter where we roam any hillside feels like home long as you are next to me
Chorus
Esme, you're the reason I keep going fields on fire, gold and glowing Esme, nothing here is ever hazy when you're near, the whole world's easy
Outro
Grass will bend and fields will fade but I'm glad this walk was made

Verse 1
Blue cotton stretched across us both One coat, two hearts that agree Nothing fancy in the way we walk But you are steady company to me
Pre-chorus
I never planned on needing this This simple thing that we have made But here I am, and here I stay
Chorus
Esme, you keep the cold away Under one sky, close to me Nothing about you is ever hazy Esme, this is where I want to be
Verse 2
Some days the wind tries to pull us apart Still you hold the fabric tight We keep walking, no need to talk You make the ordinary feel right
Chorus
Esme, you keep the cold away Under one sky, close to me Nothing about you is ever hazy Esme, this is where I want to be
Bridge
I have loved you slow and I have loved you sure Through the loud days and the plain You never asked me to be anything more Than the one who walks beside you in the rain
Chorus
Esme, you keep the cold away Under one sky, close to me Nothing about you is ever hazy Esme, this is where I want to be
Outro
Blue cotton wrapped around us still You are the warmth I chose, and choose
Between the Stacks
Bossa nova · Bossa · Nylon guitar · BreezyA soft bossa nova love song for Esme, built from a quiet moment in a secondhand bookshop, sincere and unhurried.

Verse 1
Dust was drifting in the light Nobody else in sight I found you by the poetry shelf Turning pages slow and bright
Pre-chorus
You didn't notice me at first Lost in some line, some verse And I stood still, not saying a word Feeling the quiet start to burst
Chorus
Esme, you turned and the whole shop stilled Every corner softly filled Something in me finally spoke Esme, this is what I've always willed
Verse 2
You read me half a line out loud Laughing, a little proud I didn't know the poem at all But I loved the way it sounded
Bridge
No grand plan, no perfect sign Just old paper and your eyes meeting mine Something settled, something true I keep coming back to you
Chorus
Esme, you turned and the whole shop stilled Every corner softly filled Something in me finally spoke Esme, this is what I've always willed
Outro
Dust still drifts where we first stood Esme, that light was good
