  Verse 1

  Dashboard light is turning orange Your hand is steady on the gear Nothing on this road is loud Everything I want is here

  Pre-chorus

  I could drive all night and not mind No map, no clock, no reason Just this feeling I can't hide

  Chorus

  Joanne, you make the quiet kind The kind that never needs to shout Every mile I've left behind Just brought me further into doubt, then out

  Verse 2

  Streetlights pass like slow applause Your fingers tap along the beat We don't talk, we don't need to This silence still feels like a treat

  Bridge

  Some nights are for saying nothing Some loves are built from little rides This one's built on empty roads And how it feels when you're beside

  Chorus

  Joanne, you make the quiet kind The kind that never needs to shout Every mile I've left behind Just brought me further into doubt, then out

  Outro

  The light still glows a soft orange Your hand still finds the gear in mine

  Verse 1

  You set our brushes in that old mug chipped on the edge but it still stands I watch you do it every night and something in my chest understands

  Chorus

  Joanne, you never needed grand just steady hands and time to spend I'd know your shape here in the dark Joanne, my closest friend

  Verse 2

  You hum a bit while brushing your teeth off key, but I would never say I love the small, unfinished things the way you fold into the day

  Pre-chorus

  No one sees the tiny proof the mug, the sink, the same routine but I keep counting all of it

  Chorus

  Joanne, you never needed grand just steady hands and time to spend I'd know your shape here in the dark Joanne, my closest friend

  Bridge

  Some nights the water runs too long and still you wait for me to come that kind of patience is the love that outlasts every louder one

  Chorus

  Joanne, you never needed grand just steady hands and time to spend I'd know your shape here in the dark Joanne, my closest friend

  Outro

  Two brushes leaning in one mug still standing close when the light goes

• Two Pairs of Boots

  Soul waltz · Soul · Organ · Swaying

  A quiet soul waltz about steady, unglamorous love, built from two pairs of boots left tangled in seaweed on grey sand.

  Verse 1

  I left my boots beside yours and never thought to move them the tide came up and tangled dry seaweed round both our soles

  Pre-chorus

  You never asked for promises just stood here while the light dropped and something in me settled

  Chorus

  Joanne, you make the small things land I never had to understand you stayed when nothing else was planned your hand still finds my hand

  Verse 2

  We could have walked in circles instead we stood and let it happen the sand kept shifting under us but you were never hard to hold

  Pre-chorus

  You never asked for promises just stood here while the light dropped and something in me settled

  Chorus

  Joanne, you make the small things land I never had to understand you stayed when nothing else was planned your hand still finds my hand

  Bridge

  Some loves need a reason ours just needed room I found mine in the quiet standing next to you

  Chorus

  Joanne, you make the small things land I never had to understand you stayed when nothing else was planned your hand still finds my hand

  Outro

  Two boots still tangled where we left them proof that we were standing here
