  Verse 1

  Yellow light is pooling on the ground Puddles holding on to what they see You drop your keys right into my hand And that small weight means everything to me

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need the moon to prove it Just this street and just this rain Something in me's leaning toward you

  Chorus

  Reuben, you're the one I choose again Every single time the light turns low Nothing here is loud or wide or grand Reuben, it's the quiet ways I know

  Verse 2

  You laugh soft when the water splashes up Your key still warm from being in your hand I trade you mine without a second thought This is how two people understand

  Chorus

  Reuben, you're the one I choose again Every single time the light turns low Nothing here is loud or wide or grand Reuben, it's the quiet ways I know

  Bridge

  Some nights it's just an ordinary street Some nights it's the only place I'd be No grand gesture, just your hand in mine That's the whole of it for me

  Chorus

  Reuben, you're the one I choose again Every single time the light turns low Nothing here is loud or wide or grand Reuben, it's the quiet ways I know

  Outro

  Puddles still hold the yellow light Your key is warm inside my hand tonight

  Verse 1

  Metal bench humming under us both Engine thrum steady as any oath Amber light falling soft on your face You make the noise feel like a quiet place

  Pre-chorus

  Nobody else makes stillness feel loud I lose my nerve and you don't back down Something is rising, waiting on you

  Chorus

  Reuben, you're the calm I lean into Every small hour feels new with you No grand gesture, no need to prove Reuben, I'm steadier since I found you

  Verse 2

  Vibration rides up through my spine You reach over and your hand finds mine Nothing dressed up, nothing rehearsed Just this bench, this hum, this thirst

  Bridge

  Doesn't matter where this engine's bound I've got what I came for, found

  Chorus

  Reuben, you're the calm I lean into Every small hour feels new with you No grand gesture, no need to prove Reuben, I'm steadier since I found you

  Outro

  Let the engine keep its hum Reuben, I'm right where I want to come

  Verse 1

  Glove box door won't stay shut Maps all folded, going soft Dashboard glare lights up the dust You just laugh and set them off

  Chorus

  Reuben, you're the steady kind Held together, never torn Every road you leave behind Reuben, brings me back to noon

  Verse 2

  You keep things nobody needs Ticket stubs and broken pens I used to think that was just you Now I see how love begins

  Pre-chorus

  I'm not looking for the highway I don't need the miles to prove it Just the way you hum along

  Chorus

  Reuben, you're the steady kind Held together, never torn Every road you leave behind Reuben, brings me back to noon

  Bridge

  We don't need to go nowhere fast Just glad you're sitting next to me Whatever's coming, whatever's past You're the one I'd choose to see

  Chorus

  Reuben, you're the steady kind Held together, never torn Every road you leave behind Reuben, brings me back to noon

  Outro

  Let the glove box hang there open Home is wherever you are, Reuben
