Verse 1
Steam is rising off the bowl Your hand finds mine, we lose control Just a shaker, salt and glass Still I want this moment to last
Pre-chorus
Nothing here is loud or grand Just the warmth of your hand And I'm leaning into this
Chorus
Ian, you're the calm I'm trying to find Ian, steady as the beating of time Small things turn to gold with you near You make the quiet feel less like fear
Verse 2
Two spoons and a table for two Nothing fancy, just me and you You laugh and the whole room warms I forget the shape of storms
Pre-chorus
Nothing here is loud or grand Just the warmth of your hand And I'm leaning into this
Chorus
Ian, you're the calm I'm trying to find Ian, steady as the beating of time Small things turn to gold with you near You make the quiet feel less like fear
Bridge
I don't need the bright lights on I just need you when the day is done No grand words, no reasons why Just you, staying, like the ground beneath the sky
Chorus
Ian, you're the calm I'm trying to find Ian, steady as the beating of time Small things turn to gold with you near You make the quiet feel less like fear
Outro
The soup's gone cold, we didn't care Your hand still resting there
Between Two Walls
Irish air · Irish · Whistle · LiltingA quiet, steady love song for Ian, built from the small everyday sight of washing turning slow in the wind, and what it feels like to have someone worth coming home to.

Verse 1
A pillowcase turns between two walls damp and slow in the narrow air and I stand here watching it settle because you're the one thing I compare
Chorus
Ian, you steady me like nothing else can I have loved you since before I knew the plan quiet as washing turning in the breeze Ian, you're the calm I'm always trying to find
Verse 2
You hum some tune I can't quite name hands full of pegs and morning light I forget what I was meant to be doing just watching you get something right
Pre-chorus
There's nothing grand about this hour no big words, no reason to pretend but something in me leans your way
Chorus
Ian, you steady me like nothing else can I have loved you since before I knew the plan quiet as washing turning in the breeze Ian, you're the calm I'm always trying to find
Bridge
Some loves shout, some loves fly mine just waits for you to turn round no lion's roar, no reason why just you, still here, still found
Chorus
Ian, you steady me like nothing else can I have loved you since before I knew the plan quiet as washing turning in the breeze Ian, you're the calm I'm always trying to find
Outro
Let the pillowcase turn in the wind I'll be here when it's dry again
Two Shadows on the Drive
Country waltz · Country · Waltz · Pedal steelA plain, sincere country waltz about steady love, built from one small evening image: two shadows crossing a wet driveway under streetlamp light.
Read the lyricsHide the lyrics
Verse 1
The lamp turns the asphalt to gold Two shadows cross slow where it's wet One of them's leaning toward you That's the story that never gets old
Pre-chorus
I've counted the ways I could say it Simple words, but I keep second guessing So let the light say it instead
Chorus
Ian, you steady me down No one else wears that name like a crown Ian, I'm still trying To tell you I'd never leave town
Verse 2
Some nights we don't talk much at all Just walk while the puddles run bright You reach for my hand on the driveway Like it's nothing, like breathing is right
Bridge
Years could pass or just one evening Doesn't change what I'm feeling You're the calm in my chest when I'm reeling The one steady light that keeps beaming
Chorus
Ian, you steady me down No one else wears that name like a crown Ian, I'm still trying To tell you I'd never leave town
Outro
The lamp still turns gold on the asphalt Two shadows still cross, still not far
