Love Songs for Gary

• Before the Kettle Cools

  Dream pop · Reverb · Hazy

  A quiet love song for the stillness before the day starts, when two cups of tea say more than words. Perfect for new love, old love, or any love still finding its morning rhythm.

  Verse 1

  Two mugs going cold on the counter Neither of us minds the wait Light hasn't found the window yet But you're already looking at me straight

  Pre-chorus

  No words yet, none needed Just steam and the hush of the house This is where the day gets steady

  Chorus

  Gary, you're the calm in the room Steady long before you speak Nothing here feels like too soon You're the certainty I keep

  Verse 2

  You reach for the sugar first Always thinking of what I like Some mornings we don't talk at all And somehow it's still exactly right

  Bridge

  Let the tea go cold if it wants to We're not going anywhere fast There's no clock on how I hold you This quiet was built to last

  Chorus

  Gary, you're the calm in the room Steady long before you speak Nothing here feels like too soon You're the certainty I keep

  Outro

  Two mugs still sitting there Warm enough now, just like you

  Verse 1

  Rain came down and soaked us through We ran for shelter, just us two One coat between us on the ride home You laughed and pulled me closer too

  Pre-chorus

  Water pooling by our feet Nothing fancy, nothing neat But you're the warmth I'm leaning into

  Chorus

  Gary, you're the one I choose Every time I've got no reason to lose Something plain that never feels ordinary Gary, you're the warmth I use

  Verse 2

  Steamed up windows, tired feet Nobody else on our small street You reached over, took my hand again Made the whole cold night feel sweet

  Pre-chorus

  Water pooling by our feet Nothing fancy, nothing neat But you're the warmth I'm leaning into

  Chorus

  Gary, you're the one I choose Every time I've got no reason to lose Something plain that never feels ordinary Gary, you're the warmth I use

  Bridge

  Doesn't need to be a big thing Just your shoulder, just this quiet No grand words, no wide array Just you, and I'm not going anywhere

  Chorus

  Gary, you're the one I choose Every time I've got no reason to lose Something plain that never feels ordinary Gary, you're the warmth I use

  Outro

  Still that coat hangs by our door Still I'd choose you, always more

  Verse 1

  Two hands reached into the bin Both wanted the same orange to win I let go and watched you smile You said we could share, after a while

  Chorus

  Gary, you make the small things sweet Gary, you turn a stall into a treat Nobody else picks fruit like you Somehow you make old habits feel new

  Verse 2

  Funny how one piece of fruit Started something hard to refute Now I save you the ripest one Just to watch what your grin has done

  Pre-chorus

  I used to eat alone, unwary Now I keep one back, just in case Waiting on that same familiar face

  Chorus

  Gary, you make the small things sweet Gary, you turn a stall into a treat Nobody else picks fruit like you Somehow you make old habits feel new

  Bridge

  Some love comes loud, some comes quiet as air Ours came from oranges, split down the middle, fair No grand gesture, no fanfare needed Just two hands, and a habit that succeeded

  Chorus

  Gary, you make the small things sweet Gary, you turn a stall into a treat Nobody else picks fruit like you Somehow you make old habits feel new

  Outro

  Still two hands reach for the same one Still glad it's you, every single one
