  Piano ballad · Piano · Ballad · Intimate

  Verse 1

  Coins rattle down the cold plastic tray spent on nothing, gone in a blur every one of them lost by morning but you're not spare change, Wilbur

  Pre-chorus

  Everyone else just passes through counted quick and let go but I keep turning you over

  Chorus

  Wilbur, you're the coin I keep tucked away, not the one I spend warm from my hand, never cold the start of me and the end

  Verse 2

  Every booth I ever pulled up to took its due and waved me on but you stayed heavy in my pocket long after the toll was gone

  Chorus

  Wilbur, you're the coin I keep tucked away, not the one I spend warm from my hand, never cold the start of me and the end

  Bridge

  I could lose every coin I own and still come home to you not currency, not something owed just the one thing I hold true

  Chorus

  Wilbur, you're the coin I keep tucked away, not the one I spend warm from my hand, never cold the start of me and the end

  Outro

  Let the whole world rattle past I'm keeping this one, at last

  Verse 1

  I wrapped the crusts in paper twice Just to keep them warm for you Some folks call that a little thing Wilbur, to me it's paradise

  Pre-chorus

  It's never the big and shining part It's folded corners, careful hands It's this small love that starts

  Chorus

  Wilbur, you're the one I choose Every plain old thing I do I'd fold the world if it helped you Wilbur, there's no one like you

  Verse 2

  You never asked for silk or gold Just bread wrapped tight against the cold I give you what my hands can hold This is the only way I'm told

  Pre-chorus

  It's never the big and shining part It's folded corners, careful hands It's this small love that starts

  Chorus

  Wilbur, you're the one I choose Every plain old thing I do I'd fold the world if it helped you Wilbur, there's no one like you

  Bridge

  No speech, no grand parade Just this, quietly made For you and only you

  Chorus

  Wilbur, you're the one I choose Every plain old thing I do I'd fold the world if it helped you Wilbur, there's no one like you

  Outro

  Still wrapping something small for you Still meaning every fold I do

• Locked Door, Open Heart

  Gospel soul · Gospel · Organ · Rising

  A steady gospel soul love song for Wilbur, built from a locked ticket office and a timetable stuck to the glass, that turns a small closed moment into a promise of staying.

  Verse 1

  I stood where the old window shut Paper edges curling up But I felt you close beside me still Waiting there against my will

  Pre-chorus

  Doors can close and trains can leave Still there's one thing I believe My heart keeps calling out for

  Chorus

  Wilbur, you're the steady in my blur Every road I've walked led back to her No, to you, my constant, my one true Wilbur, I was always meant for you

  Verse 2

  Nothing moves behind that glass Yet you make the stillness pass You turn a wait into a rest You make my quiet feel like blessed

  Bridge

  Time may slip and schedules fade But you're the promise I have made No paper fluttering, no closed door Can hold back what I'm certain for

  Chorus

  Wilbur, you're the steady in my blur Every road I've walked led back to her No, to you, my constant, my one true Wilbur, I was always meant for you

  Outro

  The window's shut but I don't mind Wilbur, you were worth the time
