Rusty Gate
Style: Blues slow dance

[Verse 1]
Gravel crunching under my boots
Steep hill, but I don't slow down
Somewhere past my doubts and my roots
There's a gate that lets me in your town

[Chorus]
Eira, you're the reason I climb
You could turn away, but you never do
Eira, you've been steady through time
Every road I walk leads home to you

[Verse 2]
That rusty gate still swings for me
Hinges creaking, but it holds
You never asked who I'd be
Just let me in from the cold

[Pre-chorus]
I've carried heavier things than this
Carried doubt up hills of stone
But your name is the one I can't miss

[Chorus]
Eira, you're the reason I climb
You could turn away, but you never do
Eira, you've been steady through time
Every road I walk leads home to you

[Bridge]
No map ever brought me here
Just the pull of you, plain and clear

[Chorus]
Eira, you're the reason I climb
You could turn away, but you never do
Eira, you've been steady through time
Every road I walk leads home to you

[Outro]
That gate still hangs open wide
And I'm still walking to your side
