V5.5

[Verse 1 - gentle, close, unhurried] You brought peaches from the corner store left them warm beside the keys We spent half an hour choosing something neither one would see You laughed into your sleeve I forgot what I was saying Nothing about the evening felt like it needed saving [Turn - melody lifts slightly] I know how this usually goes somebody starts deciding what a good thing ought to mean before it’s done arriving [Refrain - soft, open, no big chorus] So keep it here where it doesn’t owe us anything No forecast no fine print no measuring I like the way this feels before we start explaining Let tomorrow be tomorrow I’m not asking it to stay [Verse 2 - relaxed pocket, slightly more rhythmic] Your jacket’s on the chair again you said you’d only stop a minute Now the kettle’s gone lukewarm and we’re still nowhere near finished There’s something almost generous in leaving this unclaimed No anniversary waiting no occasion to arrange [Turn - warmer lower harmony] Maybe we don’t need a reason maybe reason makes it smaller Maybe liking where we are is enough to let it matter [Second Refrain - new wording, fuller harmony] Leave the future off the table there’s enough already here Your hand resting near mine the whole evening feeling clear No promises to polish no conclusion we should reach I don’t need a better answer than the one you’re giving me [Bridge - sparse, intimate] I’ve spent enough time trying to get ahead of things Turning every good hour into what it might become This time I’d rather miss the prediction than miss what’s happening [Final section - warmest point, stacked Alice harmonies] Keep it here not forever not for proof Just long enough to let something be good without improving it [Outro - nearly bare] The peaches are still there We never picked a movie
