*Verse 1*
I used to think love had to shake the ground
Had to be loud to be found
Now I know it in the quiet hour
The way my breathing slows in your orbit
No performance, nothing to prove
Just this settling into the room
*Pre-Chorus*
Nothing dramatic, nothing that aches
Just the first easy breath I've ever taken
*Chorus*
You're the calm I didn't know love could be
Not the storm, just the stillness after
Not the ache, just the ease
I didn't know peace could feel like this
Didn't know safe could feel like bliss
You're the quiet I keep coming home to
You're the calm
*Verse 2*
No performance, no grand gesture
No highs so high I lose my measure
Just Tuesday mornings, just this weight
Lifted, just this open gate
I don't brace anymore when I walk in the door
I just exhale, I don't need anything more
*Pre-Chorus*
Nothing dramatic, nothing that aches
Just the first easy breath I've ever taken
*Chorus*
You're the calm I didn't know love could be
Not the storm, just the stillness after
Not the ache, just the ease
I didn't know peace could feel like this
Didn't know safe could feel like bliss
You're the quiet I keep coming home to
You're the calm
*Bridge*
(soft, almost spoken, spacious)
No fireworks, no chasing the high
Just steady hands and no goodbye
Just the same warm light every day
This is what safe was supposed to feel like all along
*Final Chorus (still gentle, but fuller — warmth, not a big rock swell)*
You're the calm I didn't know love could be
Not the storm, just the stillness after
Not the ache, just the ease
I didn't know peace could feel like this
Didn't know safe could feel like bliss
You're the quiet I keep coming home to
You're steady
You're the calm
