  Verse 1

  Brown leaves stuck to the damp grass Nothing about that day moved fast You sat close, didn't say a word I felt something settle, unheard

  Pre-chorus

  I've built my whole house on your calm Held steady by the weight of your palm And I'm leaning toward the sound of your name

  Chorus

  Monica, you're the peace I found On that old bench, on that quiet ground Monica, through the whole wide year You're the one truth I hold near

  Verse 2

  The wind moved slow through the trees You pulled your coat round your knees I watched you breathe like the world could wait I've never doubted that as fate

  Pre-chorus

  I've built my whole house on your calm Held steady by the weight of your palm And I'm leaning toward the sound of your name

  Chorus

  Monica, you're the peace I found On that old bench, on that quiet ground Monica, through the whole wide year You're the one truth I hold near

  Bridge

  No grand thing was ever said Just your hand, and the leaves, and my head Turned toward you like it always does

  Chorus

  Monica, you're the peace I found On that old bench, on that quiet ground Monica, through the whole wide year You're the one truth I hold near

  Outro

  Let the leaves keep sticking to the grass I'll stay right here as long as you last

• Two Cups on the Dash

  Slow R&B · R&B · Electric piano · Smooth

  A slow, plain love song built from a small quiet moment: two paper cups riding the dashboard while the road runs on ahead. For any kind of love, new or worn soft by years.

  Verse 1

  Coffee's gone cold, we don't care Windows fogged from breathing air Miles keep coming, grey and long You're the warmth I keep right there

  Pre-chorus

  I've got one hand on the wheel One hand reaching for you still Something's waking, something real

  Chorus

  Monica, you steady me Like a hand I don't need to see Roads keep changing, you don't move Monica, you're home to me

  Verse 2

  Cups sit close but never touch Kind of like we don't say much Quiet says enough, I think You were always plenty, plenty much

  Chorus

  Monica, you steady me Like a hand I don't need to see Roads keep changing, you don't move Monica, you're home to me

  Bridge

  Every mile looks just the same Till I say your name Then the grey pulls back a bit And I remember why I came

  Chorus

  Monica, you steady me Like a hand I don't need to see Roads keep changing, you don't move Monica, you're home to me

  Outro

  Two cold cups, still sitting there Still yours, still steady, still my prayer

• Rust and Steady

  Doo wop · Retro · Sweet

  A quiet doo wop love song about staying loyal through cold seasons, built around the image of old railings holding firm above dark winter water.

  Verse 1

  Down by the railings, water runs grey I stand there thinking of you Rust on the metal but it won't give way Some things hold on, it's true

  Pre-chorus

  I never learned to talk it pretty No fancy words in me But something's rising, steady and gritty

  Chorus

  Monica, you're the one thing sure Through every cold and grey No one else could ever be Monica The one who makes me stay

  Verse 2

  Winter water doesn't rush or roar It just keeps moving slow That's how I love you, more and more Quiet, but steady in the flow

  Bridge

  Let the wind come, let it bite I'm not moving from this rail You're the warmth inside the night You're the reason I don't fail

  Chorus

  Monica, you're the one thing sure Through every cold and grey No one else could ever be Monica The one who makes me stay

  Outro

  The railings rust, but they still stand So will I, holding your hand
