  Verse 1

  Cold coffee sits on the dashboard Two cups from a night we drove far You reached for my hand at the red light And I knew right then who you are

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need the miles to mean something I just need you next to me still So say you'll keep riding this road out

  Chorus

  Hunter, you're the one I keep choosing Every morning, however we start Some folks chase after the fast lane But Hunter, you're steady, you're heart

  Verse 2

  We've left cups half full in the winter And forgot them again in the spring Still you laugh at the same worn out stories Still you turn and you mean everything

  Bridge

  I don't need the picture perfect Just the truth of you here by my side Through the good years and the hard ones You're the one I keep wanting to ride with

  Chorus

  Hunter, you're the one I keep choosing Every morning, however we start Some folks chase after the fast lane But Hunter, you're steady, you're heart

  Outro

  The cups are still there on the dashboard And so, after all this, are you

  Verse 1

  I sat where the floor throws back light Green from the sign on the wall You reached for my hand in that light Nothing about it felt small

  Pre-chorus

  Every plain hour turns golden When you're the one sitting near I stop watching the doorway

  Chorus

  Hunter, you stayed when it mattered Nobody asked you to stay Something in me feels less scattered Since you walked into the grey

  Verse 2

  Rows of chairs, nobody speaking Hours that don't seem to end You made the silence worth keeping You made yourself my one friend

  Chorus

  Hunter, you stayed when it mattered Nobody asked you to stay Something in me feels less scattered Since you walked into the grey

  Bridge

  I don't need the lights to be pretty I just need you sitting there Under the exit sign's glow You're the calm inside the glare

  Chorus

  Hunter, you stayed when it mattered Nobody asked you to stay Something in me feels less scattered Since you walked into the grey

  Outro

  The floor still throws back that green But now it just means you're near

  Verse 1

  Two blue umbrellas lean by the door Dripping slow on the yellow floor You shook yours off and laughed at the rain Nothing about you ever felt plain

  Pre-chorus

  I keep the puddles you left behind Small proof that you were here, and mine So say the word and I am there

  Chorus

  Hunter, you are the calm in my chest The one I choose above all the rest No need to shout it, no need to prove Hunter, you are the easiest thing to love

  Verse 2

  The curb still holds the shape of the storm You took my hand and kept it warm Water ran off in thin silver lines Nothing dramatic, just yours and mine

  Chorus

  Hunter, you are the calm in my chest The one I choose above all the rest No need to shout it, no need to prove Hunter, you are the easiest thing to love

  Bridge

  Some days are grey and some days are gold Either way, you're the hand I hold No thunder needed, no big scene Just you, the rain, and the in between

  Chorus

  Hunter, you are the calm in my chest The one I choose above all the rest No need to shout it, no need to prove Hunter, you are the easiest thing to love

  Outro

  Two blue umbrellas dry by the door I'd walk through any rain for you once more
