Salt on the Rail
Style: Country waltz

[Verse 1]
Morning comes in grey and slow
Salt has dried along the rail
You put your coffee down beside me
That's the whole of how I know

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need the sun to show it
Don't need words to make it true
I just need this quiet minute

[Chorus]
Agnes, you're the calm I lean on
Steady as the tide gone still
Some loves shout and some just settle
Agnes, you're the one that will

[Verse 2]
I've watched the weather change on you
Never once saw you turn hard
Some folks rust like an old railing
You just wear the years right through

[Bridge]
Doesn't matter if it's new love
Doesn't matter if it's old
This is the kind that keeps the warmth in
Long after the morning's cold

[Chorus]
Agnes, you're the calm I lean on
Steady as the tide gone still
Some loves shout and some just settle
Agnes, you're the one that will

[Outro]
Let the grey sky do its worst
Salt still holds where love dried first
