  Verse 1

  You left me half the sponge cake sitting on a soft wet plate said you weren't that hungry anyway but I saw how long you waited

  Pre-chorus

  It's never the big things you offer always some small, folded gift and I keep learning how to notice

  Chorus

  Juniper, you give like it's nothing quiet as a hand on my back I never have to ask you twice you just know what love should look like

  Verse 2

  Cardboard going soft in your hands icing melting into the tear you didn't mind the mess of it you just wanted me to have my share

  Chorus

  Juniper, you give like it's nothing quiet as a hand on my back I never have to ask you twice you just know what love should look like

  Bridge

  I could live on small things like this the plate, the fork, the waiting the way you make sure I'm eating before you think of your own hunger

  Chorus

  Juniper, you give like it's nothing quiet as a hand on my back I never have to ask you twice you just know what love should look like

  Outro

  Somewhere there's a plate gone soft still holding half of what you gave

  Verse 1

  Frost on the rake by the shed Nobody else would look twice Told you the cold snapped my patience You just smiled and stayed instead

  Chorus

  Juniper, you make the quiet feel warm Steady is the shape that you take Nothing here is loud or dressed up Juniper, you're the calm after the storm

  Verse 2

  Woke up to a white morning Found you already outside Breath like smoke against the fence line You never needed a warning

  Pre-chorus

  I've stopped waiting for the big moment Started noticing all the small ones Every one of them leads to you

  Chorus

  Juniper, you make the quiet feel warm Steady is the shape that you take Nothing here is loud or dressed up Juniper, you're the calm after the storm

  Bridge

  No fireworks, just the porch light on Just you, still here when the frost is gone

  Chorus

  Juniper, you make the quiet feel warm Steady is the shape that you take Nothing here is loud or dressed up Juniper, you're the calm after the storm

  Outro

  The rake's still leaning by the shed Warmer now, with you instead

  Verse 1

  Table legs sag by the wall dust on the sleeves, none on us at all every record in that box picked with care proof that you knew I'd still be there

  Pre-chorus

  Some things get left when love runs thin but you kept every needle drop and skin and that's the kind of staying I believe in

  Chorus

  Juniper, you never made me guess you loved me plain, without the mess Juniper, steady as a low horn's hum you're the reason quiet don't feel numb

  Verse 2

  I found that box when we first moved in half forgotten, warped and thin you said keep it, it still holds the sound the same way you keep me around

  Pre-chorus

  Some things get left when love runs thin but you kept every needle drop and skin and that's the kind of staying I believe in

  Chorus

  Juniper, you never made me guess you loved me plain, without the mess Juniper, steady as a low horn's hum you're the reason quiet don't feel numb

  Bridge

  No grand gesture, just a hand held tight just the same face, every single night that's louder than a shout to me that's the whole of what love needs to be

  Chorus

  Juniper, you never made me guess you loved me plain, without the mess Juniper, steady as a low horn's hum you're the reason quiet don't feel numb

  Outro

  That table still leans, still holds its ground and so do you, and so does the sound
