Bend and Hold
Style: Cinematic strings

[Verse 1]
I watched the grass bend by the fence
leaning hard against the wire
you never once made a big defence
you just stayed, and asked no higher

[Pre-chorus]
I used to think love needed proof
something loud to make it true
but you just kept on holding root

[Chorus]
Bobby, you're the calm I lean on
steady when the wind gets wild
Bobby, when the daylight's gone
you're the reason I still smile

[Verse 2]
Water sits so still and grey
out past the fence, beyond the field
and you have loved me the same way
quiet, constant, never sealed

[Pre-chorus]
I used to think love needed proof
something loud to make it true
but you just kept on holding root

[Chorus]
Bobby, you're the calm I lean on
steady when the wind gets wild
Bobby, when the daylight's gone
you're the reason I still smile

[Bridge]
No one ever taught me this
how quiet turns to keep
how a hand can hold like this
and never ask what love should be

[Chorus]
Bobby, you're the calm I lean on
steady when the wind gets wild
Bobby, when the daylight's gone
you're the reason I still smile

[Outro]
The grass still bends against that wire
you're still the one I'm leaning near
