  Verse 1

  Cardboard trays and a wobbly chair Grease on the table, we didn't care You laughed with ketchup on your thumb Right there I knew where I'd come from

  Pre-chorus

  No candles, no soft light Just napkins going damp with vinegar and lime But something in me started to build

  Chorus

  Shane, you make a table feel like home Shane, wherever you sit, I'm not alone Two forks bent from holding on too tight You're the best part of any night

  Verse 2

  You split the last chip down the middle Called it fair, called it simple I watched you talk with your whole hand Didn't want to be anywhere but Shane's land

  Chorus

  Shane, you make a table feel like home Shane, wherever you sit, I'm not alone Two forks bent from holding on too tight You're the best part of any night

  Bridge

  Give me the mess over anything neat Give me you, laughing, easy to reach Nothing here was ever about the food

  Chorus

  Shane, you make a table feel like home Shane, wherever you sit, I'm not alone Two forks bent from holding on too tight You're the best part of any night

  Outro

  The trays are long thrown away now But I'd still choose that chair, somehow

• Spokes on the Wall

  Soul waltz · Soul · Organ · Swaying

  A quiet soul waltz about steady, unshowy love, built from the shadow of bicycle spokes turning on a brick wall under one streetlamp.

  Verse 1

  One lamp burning at the end of the street Throws the wheel's shadow down at your feet You lean the bike against the wall And it's you I came to meet

  Pre-chorus

  The spokes keep spinning slow and plain Nothing fancy, nothing to explain But watching you, something starts to gain

  Chorus

  Shane, you're the one steady thing I know Under this light where the shadows go No grand plan, no rehearsed line Just you, Shane, and I don't let go

  Verse 2

  The brick still holds the warmth of the day You laugh and the wheel spins away I count the spokes without a reason Just to have a reason to stay

  Chorus

  Shane, you're the one steady thing I know Under this light where the shadows go No grand plan, no rehearsed line Just you, Shane, and I don't let go

  Bridge

  Some loves come loud, dressed up, on fire Ours came quiet, and lasted longer I never needed the whole sky Just this corner, and you beside me

  Chorus

  Shane, you're the one steady thing I know Under this light where the shadows go No grand plan, no rehearsed line Just you, Shane, and I don't let go

  Outro

  The lamp will burn long after we're gone But I'm glad it caught us holding on

  Verse 1

  I wipe the glass to find the street and lose the neon in the rain but I still know your face by heart the one thing here that stays the same

  Pre-chorus

  The window fogs, the signs go soft the whole world blurs and starts to bend but nothing dims when I think of

  Chorus

  Shane, you're the clearest thing I know when everything else turns to haze Shane, I'd know you in the dark by the shape you leave in my days

  Verse 2

  The traffic hums three floors below and headlights smear across the pane but you don't fade the way they do you're the one thing steady in the rain

  Chorus

  Shane, you're the clearest thing I know when everything else turns to haze Shane, I'd know you in the dark by the shape you leave in my days

  Bridge

  Let the whole street run together let the signs blur red and blue I don't need to see it clearly when I've already got you

  Chorus

  Shane, you're the clearest thing I know when everything else turns to haze Shane, I'd know you in the dark by the shape you leave in my days

  Outro

  I'll wipe the glass again tomorrow and find you standing there the same
