Steady as That
Style: Chamber folk

[Verse 1]
Leaves are tumbling past the fence
Nothing here holds its place
Grass still damp from last night's rain
But you, you make no sudden move

[Pre-chorus]
I've watched things scatter, watched them go
Watched the wire rust slow
But you keep standing where you stood

[Chorus]
Frank, you're the one thing that don't drift
Steady when the wind won't lift
I never have to check you're there
Frank, that's the whole of my one gift

[Verse 2]
Some leaves catch and spin in place
Some just sink into the ground
I used to think that love moved fast
You taught me slow can be the truth

[Pre-chorus]
I've watched things scatter, watched them go
Watched the wire rust slow
But you keep standing where you stood

[Chorus]
Frank, you're the one thing that don't drift
Steady when the wind won't lift
I never have to check you're there
Frank, that's the whole of my one gift

[Bridge]
No need to chase what doesn't run
No need to hold what's already home
You're not the wind, you're not the leaves
You're the ground that lets them land

[Chorus]
Frank, you're the one thing that don't drift
Steady when the wind won't lift
I never have to check you're there
Frank, that's the whole of my one gift

[Outro]
Let the leaves keep tumbling past the fence
I'm just glad you're standing here
