  Verse 1

  I found an old jazz record today Fingers tracing the cardboard spine, worn away Something about it made me think of you Quiet and true, the way you always do

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need the whole world's noise I just need your steady voice Pulling me in closer still

  Chorus

  Leslie, you're the calm I choose Nothing about you feels like I'll lose Leslie, you hold me like a song You make the quiet feel like home

  Verse 2

  Some things get left in the bin Passed over, but I dug back in You're the kind of find nobody sees The rarest thing, and you're mine to keep

  Bridge

  I've searched through crowded rooms and years Through all my doubts and all my fears You were there the whole time, close The one I never had to lose

  Chorus

  Leslie, you're the calm I choose Nothing about you feels like I'll lose Leslie, you hold me like a song You make the quiet feel like home

  Outro

  I'll keep you like that record's spine Held with care, and always mine

  Verse 1

  You pull the knife out of your pocket Cut the orange into six Hand me the biggest piece without looking That's just how you always give

  Chorus

  Leslie, I could sit here for hours No clock, no plan, no rush Just the wool beneath us and the sun Leslie, this is enough

  Verse 2

  Juice runs down onto the checkered wool You laugh like it doesn't matter Nothing about you needs fixing Nothing about today feels scattered

  Pre-chorus

  Some people love you loudly You love me in small careful ways Small enough to build a whole life on

  Chorus

  Leslie, I could sit here for hours No clock, no plan, no rush Just the wool beneath us and the sun Leslie, this is enough

  Bridge

  I've had louder afternoons than this one Never one that felt this true Whatever else the years take from me I want to keep the sight of you

  Chorus

  Leslie, I could sit here for hours No clock, no plan, no rush Just the wool beneath us and the sun Leslie, this is enough

  Outro

  Fold the knife, leave the peel in the grass I'll remember this long after we pass

• Face Down

  Irish air · Irish · Whistle · Lilting

  A quiet love song about the phone left untouched and the tea gone cold, because nothing said down a line matters more than who is sitting near you.

  Verse 1

  I set the receiver down today let the tea go cold in the cup no voice on the line could keep me when you were the one I looked up

  Pre-chorus

  Nobody rings me the way you do without saying a single word so I let the silence settle and I lean toward what I heard

  Chorus

  Leslie, you're the reason I stay near closer than the tea I never drink Leslie, whatever I was chasing you're worth more than I could think

  Verse 2

  You caught me watching you too long across a table gone half bare I didn't mind that you noticed I wanted you to know I was there

  Bridge

  Let the phone lie face down still let the steam rise up and fade nothing said by wire or signal means as much as what you've made

  Chorus

  Leslie, you're the reason I stay near closer than the tea I never drink Leslie, whatever I was chasing you're worth more than I could think

  Outro

  The mug's gone cold beside the phone but you're the warm I still hold on
