Hold Steady
Style: Slow R&B

[Verse 1]
You keep a light on for me
Out where the water runs cold
Bolted down when the wind hits
Something in you never lets go

[Pre-chorus]
I have been lost before now
I know the shape of drifting
But you keep pulling me in

[Chorus]
Dominic, you're the steady hand
Nothing about you is chronic
You're the ring on the rusted rail
Simple, sure, never ironic

[Verse 2]
I used to swim on my own
Never thought I needed saving
You showed up rusted and true
Still standing after the weathering

[Pre-chorus]
I have been lost before now
I know the shape of drifting
But you keep pulling me in

[Chorus]
Dominic, you're the steady hand
Nothing about you is chronic
You're the ring on the rusted rail
Simple, sure, never ironic

[Bridge]
No one asks a railing to shine
It just has to hold when it matters
You never needed to be easy
Just needed to be there after

[Chorus]
Dominic, you're the steady hand
Nothing about you is chronic
You're the ring on the rusted rail
Simple, sure, never ironic

[Outro]
The water still moves like it always did
But I know now what's fastened, and stays
