Read the lyricsHide the lyrics
Verse 1
The concrete's cold beneath us both You tuck your feet in next to mine No need to talk, no need for oaths We just sit here while the light declines
Pre-chorus
I keep meaning to say it right But the words all come out small So I'll just stay here through the night
Chorus
Tilly, you're the calm I've found Every day feels less like chance Tilly, when you're sitting round I forget to check my stance
Verse 2
Your toes are curled against the grey I watch you breathe and count the beats This is enough, I want to say This step, this hour, these two feet
Chorus
Tilly, you're the calm I've found Every day feels less like chance Tilly, when you're sitting round I forget to check my stance
Bridge
Some nights we don't move at all Just watch the garden turn to blue Nothing here is loud or tall Just me, the step, and you
Chorus
Tilly, you're the calm I've found Every day feels less like chance Tilly, when you're sitting round I forget to check my stance
Outro
The step will still be cold tomorrow I'll still want your feet by mine
Salted Chips
Blues slow dance · Blues · Guitar · SmokyA slow, plain love song about waiting in the cold for chips and knowing exactly where you want to be. Good for new love, old love, or any quiet Tuesday kind of love.

Verse 1
Breath goes up in little clouds Newspaper folded, we're not in crowds Cold hands, warm paper, nothing rare Tilly, I'd stand freezing anywhere
Pre-chorus
The chip shop light hums soft and low You lean in closer, out of the cold Something's building, I can feel it show
Chorus
Tilly, you're the warmest thing I know Chillier out, but you don't let it show Tilly, hold the paper, hold my hand This is all I ever really planned
Verse 2
You blow on chips to cool them down Laugh a little, steal my scarf, my crown Steam goes up between the streetlamp glow You're the only place I want to go
Bridge
No candles, no big speech tonight Just vinegar steam and you in the light This is the whole of it, plain and true
Chorus
Tilly, you're the warmest thing I know Chillier out, but you don't let it show Tilly, hold the paper, hold my hand This is all I ever really planned
Outro
Our breath still rising, slow and small Tilly, you're the warmest of it all
Stuck Like the Leaves
Irish air · Irish · Whistle · LiltingA quiet, plain love song for Tilly, built from wet leaves clinging to grass by an old garden bench, about how love holds on without trying.
Read the lyricsHide the lyrics
Verse 1
Leaves stuck flat to the wet grass Nobody asked them to stay so close The bench has gone grey and chilly Still I think of you when I pass
Chorus
Tilly, you are the calm in my chest Nothing about you asks to be guessed You settle in like the quiet does Tilly, you are the one I love best
Verse 2
Autumn keeps trying to clear the ground Wind comes through and moves everything round But some things hold on without trying That is the way you and I are found
Pre-chorus
I have watched what the weather can do Seen things scatter that seemed to be true But you stay close, the way certain things do
Chorus
Tilly, you are the calm in my chest Nothing about you asks to be guessed You settle in like the quiet does Tilly, you are the one I love best
Bridge
No grand storm made me choose you It was smaller and slower than that Just you, staying, when you could have gone
Chorus
Tilly, you are the calm in my chest Nothing about you asks to be guessed You settle in like the quiet does Tilly, you are the one I love best
Outro
The leaves are still stuck to the grass Tilly, that is how I hold to you
