  Verse 1

  Boxes stacked up in the attic light above us buzzing static I found old maps I'd never seen but you're the only place I've been

  Pre-chorus

  Dust settles slow, the air stands still time keeps easy at your will and I keep leaning toward you, still

  Chorus

  Patrick, you're the calm in me steady as I'd want love to be Patrick, nothing feels dramatic just you and me, easy, static

  Verse 2

  We never needed somewhere new every room feels right with you the flickering light don't bother me not when you're right here to see

  Bridge

  I don't need the map unrolled just your hand for me to hold some loves shout and some loves hum you're the quiet kind that stays, that comes

  Chorus

  Patrick, you're the calm in me steady as I'd want love to be Patrick, nothing feels dramatic just you and me, easy, static

  Outro

  Turn the light off, let it rest of all the maps, you're still the best

  Verse 1

  Greaseproof paper crumpled on the rug Wool beneath us, worn and thin You pour the tea before I ask I never notice where you begin

  Pre-chorus

  Nothing here is grand or planned No music swelling, no big scene Just you beside me, steady hand

  Chorus

  Patrick, you make the ordinary hold This flask, this field, this hour we keep Nobody else would call it much But Patrick, this is love that runs deep

  Verse 2

  You always save the last of the tea Pass it over without a word I watch you fold the paper flat It's a kindness nobody else has heard

  Bridge

  I don't need dramatic proof Just this cap screwed back on tight The way you look up, half amused And somehow that feels exactly right

  Chorus

  Patrick, you make the ordinary hold This flask, this field, this hour we keep Nobody else would call it much But Patrick, this is love that runs deep

  Outro

  The paper's folded, the tea long cold Patrick, I'd stay on this wool forever

  Verse 1

  Streetlamps drip gold on the ground Puddles hold the light so still Walking slow, no need for sound You're the warmth against the chill

  Pre-chorus

  Every window's turning grey I keep my eyes on you instead Something's building, hard to say

  Chorus

  Patrick, you're the light I know Steady through the falling rain Nothing here feels quite as slow As loving you again and again

  Verse 2

  Puddles catch the passing cars Ripples where our shadows meet You don't need to reach for stars When you're standing on this street

  Pre-chorus

  Every window's turning grey I keep my eyes on you instead Something's building, hard to say

  Chorus

  Patrick, you're the light I know Steady through the falling rain Nothing here feels quite as slow As loving you again and again

  Bridge

  No fireworks, no dramatic sky Just you and me, the same as ever Quiet love that doesn't try Holding on like nothing's better

  Chorus

  Patrick, you're the light I know Steady through the falling rain Nothing here feels quite as slow As loving you again and again

  Outro

  The lamps still glow on empty streets And I still walk here, loving you
