  Verse 1

  Rain runs down the tomatohouse pane Everything outside gone soft and slow You're humming something low again Only you would hum it just so

  Pre-chorus

  Steam sits thick on every leaf Warmth we made ourselves in here This is the part I don't want brief

  Chorus

  Maisie, the glass is fogged with us Two more hearts than the room can hold Nothing about this feels like fuss I'd pick this over gold

  Verse 2

  You wipe a circle clean to see Point at nothing much at all Whatever you find, I want to find it too Small things with you don't stay small

  Bridge

  Let the whole world stay out there wet We've got heat enough to spare I'm not thinking of anywhere else yet Just this glass, this air

  Chorus

  Maisie, the glass is fogged with us Two more hearts than the room can hold Nothing about this feels like fuss I'd pick this over gold

  Outro

  Rain still running down the pane I'd stay in this warm again

  Verse 1

  Two wrappers steaming in the cold Nothing planned and nothing told You tear yours open, hand me half I forget the cold when you laugh

  Pre-chorus

  The steam goes up between us slow You lean in close, I don't let go Something's building, warm and true

  Chorus

  Maisie, you're the warmth I keep Every simple thing runs deep You make plain old moments shine Maisie, hold your hand in mine

  Verse 2

  Salt on your fingers, grin on your face This little bench, our little place You don't need the world to see This is everything to me

  Bridge

  No grand plans, no big scene Just this bench and what we mean Vinegar sharp on the evening air Nothing I'd rather share

  Chorus

  Maisie, you're the warmth I keep Every simple thing runs deep You make plain old moments shine Maisie, hold your hand in mine

  Outro

  The wrappers cool, the light grows dim Still, I'd choose this bench with you again

  Verse 1

  I watch the water take the wood slow and sure, the way it should Nothing fights the tide for long You taught me how to let things go

  Pre-chorus

  I used to hold on far too tight used to fear the fading light Now I find I'm leaning in

  Chorus

  Maisie, you're the calm I found steady when the world spins round I could watch you for a lifetime Maisie, quiet, never crazy

  Verse 2

  The logs don't fight the sinking sand They rest there like they understand You rest the same way in my mind Some things settle, some things land

  Pre-chorus

  I used to hold on far too tight used to fear the fading light Now I find I'm leaning in

  Chorus

  Maisie, you're the calm I found steady when the world spins round I could watch you for a lifetime Maisie, quiet, never crazy

  Bridge

  No grand storm, no sudden blaze just the tide and steady days You never asked me to be certain you just stayed through all the haze

  Chorus

  Maisie, you're the calm I found steady when the world spins round I could watch you for a lifetime Maisie, quiet, never crazy

  Outro

  The wood sinks slow but never breaks I'm sinking too, for your sake
