Slate Under Two Boots
Style: Country waltz

[Verse 1]
Grey slate chips crunch soft below us
You take the slope like it don't trouble you
I watch the way you find your footing
Steady is the thing I love about us

[Chorus]
Frances, you're the best of all my chances
Every step with you just steadies me
Something plain and something true
Frances, you're the one my whole heart dances

[Verse 2]
You laugh when the loose stones slide
I reach out and you take my hand
Nothing fancy in the way we climb
Just two boots and a steady plan

[Pre-chorus]
Some folks chase the big romances
I just want the quiet kind
So hold on tight, we're near the top now

[Chorus]
Frances, you're the best of all my chances
Every step with you just steadies me
Something plain and something true
Frances, you're the one my whole heart dances

[Bridge]
No need for a grander view
Your glances say more than words could say
I'll walk this same slope every year
As long as you're the one I'm walking with

[Chorus]
Frances, you're the best of all my chances
Every step with you just steadies me
Something plain and something true
Frances, you're the one my whole heart dances

[Outro]
Grey slate still crunching soft below
That sound means you're still here, still close
