  Verse 1

  Two old coats out on the fence Hung there through the wind and rain You lean into me like that Easy, like there's no strain

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need the sun to shine Don't need any grand display Just need you here close to mine

  Chorus

  Leia, you're the warmth I keep Through the cold you never fade Leia, even half asleep I still reach for what you made

  Verse 2

  Some nights the wind gets sharp and loud You just settle nearer still No need for a single word You're the calm behind my will

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need the sun to shine Don't need any grand display Just need you here close to mine

  Chorus

  Leia, you're the warmth I keep Through the cold you never fade Leia, even half asleep I still reach for what you made

  Bridge

  Seasons come and seasons go Colours turn and fences bend You're the one thing steady here My beginning and my end

  Chorus

  Leia, you're the warmth I keep Through the cold you never fade Leia, even half asleep I still reach for what you made

  Outro

  Two coats still out on that post Holding warm against the grey

  Verse 1

  The clock glows red beside the phone It never rings this time of night I lie awake and think of you And somehow that still feels right

  Pre-chorus

  I count the hours till I see you Trace your name into the dark Waiting for the morning light

  Chorus

  Leia, you're the one I choose No matter what the hour says I'd wait through every single one Leia, you're worth all the wait

  Verse 2

  Some nights the silence talks too loud I reach for something I can't hold You're miles away but close enough To keep this whole room warm and gold

  Pre-chorus

  I count the hours till I see you Trace your name into the dark Waiting for the morning light

  Chorus

  Leia, you're the one I choose No matter what the hour says I'd wait through every single one Leia, you're worth all the wait

  Bridge

  Love isn't loud, it's just this glow A steady light that stays on low You don't need proof, you just need time And I've got all of mine to show

  Chorus

  Leia, you're the one I choose No matter what the hour says I'd wait through every single one Leia, you're worth all the wait

  Outro

  The clock still glows beside the phone But now it's you I'm coming home to

  Verse 1

  I hear you before the light comes Setting the bottles down soft Careful the way you do everything Even the cold doesn't rush you, love

  Chorus

  Leia, you're steady as morning Leia, no need for a warning Some hearts wait for the sun You're already here, adorning

  Verse 2

  The scraper's worn from your boots Years of you coming home tired Still you find me before you rest Nothing about you needs admiring to be admired

  Pre-chorus

  I've watched you choose the small things The kettle on, the door unlocked And it's building into something I can't stop

  Chorus

  Leia, you're steady as morning Leia, no need for a warning Some hearts wait for the sun You're already here, adorning

  Bridge

  No one taught you to be constant You just simply are I stopped waiting for the grand thing When I found you're the whole affair

  Chorus

  Leia, you're steady as morning Leia, no need for a warning Some hearts wait for the sun You're already here, adorning

  Outro

  The bottles catch the first light And so, still, do I
