  Verse 1

  I left my glove beside yours not thinking you would stay but there it sits this whole crossing and so do you, in your way

  Pre-chorus

  The water's cold and moving but nothing here feels far I keep wanting to say

  Chorus

  Harmony, you steady me like calm on thee no wind can shake what's true there's a kind of peace that comes from simply sitting here with you

  Verse 2

  Our gloves have gone from soaked to damp the deck has gone from loud to still and I am learning how you love me slow, and certain, like you will

  Pre-chorus

  I used to think love needed noise some grand and burning start but you just sat down next to me

  Chorus

  Harmony, you steady me like calm on thee no wind can shake what's true there's a kind of peace that comes from simply sitting here with you

  Bridge

  Some hold on tight to keep from falling I hold on because it's you not fear, just wanting to stay near you for every crossing, all the way through

  Chorus

  Harmony, you steady me like calm on thee no wind can shake what's true there's a kind of peace that comes from simply sitting here with you

  Outro

  The gloves dry out, the bench stays empty but I'd still choose this seat, with you

  Verse 1

  One lamp between two desks tonight Your stapler and mine catch the light We work in one small yellow ring Close enough to hear you breathe

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need the whole room lit Just this circle, just this bit Of you beside me, holding still

  Chorus

  Harmony, you keep me steady No harm on thee while I am ready To share this light, to share this space There's no place I'd rather stay

  Verse 2

  Papers stacked, the hour late You hum something, I don't wait To reach across and touch your hand This is more than I had planned

  Chorus

  Harmony, you keep me steady No harm on thee while I am ready To share this light, to share this space There's no place I'd rather stay

  Bridge

  Let the whole world dim and fade I'm not afraid of small and slow One warm bulb, one quiet trade Of everything I have to give

  Chorus

  Harmony, you keep me steady No harm on thee while I am ready To share this light, to share this space There's no place I'd rather stay

  Outro

  Turn the lamp off, we'll still glow One small light was all we needed

  Verse 1

  The calendar's stuck on a Tuesday My coffee's gone cold in my hand But you texted to say you'd be here soon And that's the only clock I understand

  Pre-chorus

  I count the tiles on the floor I count the hours, then I lose track Then I hear your voice at the door

  Chorus

  Harmony, you walk in and the room breathes Nothing here could ever harm thee Not while I'm standing watch, not while I'm here You're the calm on thee that I hold dear

  Verse 2

  They changed the picture on the wall Some print of a field and a farm It doesn't matter what they hang there When you're near, nothing does me harm

  Pre-chorus

  I count the tiles on the floor I count the hours, then I lose track Then I hear your voice at the door

  Chorus

  Harmony, you walk in and the room breathes Nothing here could ever harm thee Not while I'm standing watch, not while I'm here You're the calm on thee that I hold dear

  Bridge

  This isn't new, this isn't rare It's just you, showing up, always there No grand words, no perfect timing Just your hand finding mine, again and again

  Chorus

  Harmony, you walk in and the room breathes Nothing here could ever harm thee Not while I'm standing watch, not while I'm here You're the calm on thee that I hold dear

  Outro

  The cup's still sitting there, half full I'd wait through every hour for you
