[Genre: Chill Pop / Bossa Nova / Lo-fi] [BPM: 90] [Mood: Grateful, Warm, Easygoing, Honest] [Voice: Deep warm male baritone, solo] [Intro] (Warm nylon guitar strum, finger snaps, light shaker, synth pad rises) [Verse 1] You don't say much when things go wrong You just show up and bring along Some takeout and a terrible joke And somehow all the heavy starts to smoke away [Verse 2] We've known each other half our lives Through the boring parts and the sharp left drives You were there when I forgot the way Quietly reminding me to stay [Pre-Chorus] It's not the grand gestures or the speech It's the way you're always within reach Not a hero, not a shining knight Just a friend who says "You'll be alright" [Chorus] Walk with me through the ordinary days Through the fog and through the golden haze You don't have to fix me, don't have to try Just walk with me underneath this sky Walk with me when the road is long When I've lost the lyrics to my song You don't have to carry what I hold Just walk with me till we both grow old [Verse 3] Remember when we drove all night for nothing Gas station coffee, stars and stupid plans We were chasing something we couldn't name And somehow ended up exactly where we began [Verse 4] You called me out when I was being foolish You laughed it off when I apologized The kind of honesty that doesn't bruise The kind of loyalty money never buys [Pre-Chorus] We don't do the sentimental stuff A nod across the room is quite enough But tonight I'm writing what I mean You're the best damn thing I've ever seen [Chorus] Walk with me through the ordinary days Through the fog and through the golden haze You don't have to fix me, don't have to try Just walk with me underneath this sky Walk with me when the road is long When I've lost the lyrics to my song You don't have to carry what I hold Just walk with me till we both grow old [Bridge] People come and people drift apart Some leave footprints, some leave marks But you, you left a road beneath my feet A steady rhythm, a familiar beat They say that love is loud and love is fire But I think love is also just a quiet wire Between two people who don't need to speak To know exactly what the other seeks [Bridge - building warmly] Ooh, side by side we go Ooh, fast and sometimes slow Ooh, through the highs and lows That's how a real friendship grows [Chorus - final] Walk with me through the ordinary days Through the fog and through the golden haze You don't have to fix me, don't have to try Just walk with me underneath this sky Walk with me when the road is long When I've lost the lyrics to my song You don't have to carry what I hold Just walk with me till we both grow old [Outro] (Soft humming, relaxed) Mm-mm, walk with me Mm-mm, easily Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm Till we both grow old (Guitar strums slow to single notes, finger snaps fade, gentle end) [End]
