Love Songs for Micah

Verse 1

Wind cuts sideways over the concrete Names and numbers click and repeat Everyone's checking where they should be I just came here to see you, Micah

Chorus

Micah, you steady this whole platform Every direction feels like home when you're near Trains keep sliding past like nothing Micah, you're the one thing that's clear

Verse 2

Boards flip letters too fast to read Cold air catching under my collar You laugh like none of it matters That laugh is the only thing I need

Pre-chorus

Announcements blur into noise and static My pulse keeps time with the departures board Say the word and I'm already yours

Chorus

Micah, you steady this whole platform Every direction feels like home when you're near Trains keep sliding past like nothing Micah, you're the one thing that's clear

Bridge

Let the whole line run late tonight I've got no schedule I'd rather keep You make standing still feel right This is the only stop I need

Chorus

Micah, you steady this whole platform Every direction feels like home when you're near Trains keep sliding past like nothing Micah, you're the one thing that's clear

Outro

The board keeps flipping, we don't move Wind can't touch what I found in you

Verse 1

Peas go sliding down the chute Land beside the tinned tomatoes too You catch my eye and something shifts Nothing here but you, my gift

Pre-chorus

I could be anywhere at all Any queue, any store, any hall But you're the one who makes it feel

Chorus

Micah, you're the steady part Quiet as this trolley cart Micah, in the smallest things You're the calm that living brings

Verse 2

You read the label, frown a bit Ask me if the bread's a fit I say yes to anything you choose There's nothing here I'd ever lose

Pre-chorus

I could be anywhere at all Any queue, any store, any hall But you're the one who makes it feel

Chorus

Micah, you're the steady part Quiet as this trolley cart Micah, in the smallest things You're the calm that living brings

Bridge

No need for candlelight or song Just you beside me right along This is how the love gets shown In baskets, queues, the way back home

Chorus

Micah, you're the steady part Quiet as this trolley cart Micah, in the smallest things You're the calm that living brings

Outro

Peas still cold against my hand This is how I understand

Verse 1

You step in from the rain Black coat dripping by the frame Water pools on the grey tile I still love you just the same

Pre-chorus

No one saw the door swing open No one saw you standing there Only I was waiting for it

Chorus

Micah, you don't have to try so hard I love you plain, I love you true There's no version I'd trade for you Micah, it was always you

Verse 2

Your shoes leave marks down the hall Puddle forming where you stand I hand you something dry and warm I keep your coat, I hold your hand

Pre-chorus

No one saw the door swing open No one saw you standing there Only I was waiting for it

Chorus

Micah, you don't have to try so hard I love you plain, I love you true There's no version I'd trade for you Micah, it was always you

Bridge

Some loves need the lights turned up Ours was fine here in the dark A doorway, water on the floor Enough to leave its mark

Chorus

Micah, you don't have to try so hard I love you plain, I love you true There's no version I'd trade for you Micah, it was always you

Outro

The floor dries slow where you stood Still, I'd let you in again
