Rust on the Railing
Style: Gospel soul

[Verse 1]
The railing's worn where our hands have been
Rust flecks on the green paint show
Grey tide keeps rolling out and in
But you're the one steady thing I know

[Pre-chorus]
I've watched the mornings come and go
Watched the water take its time
Now my heart won't wait no more

[Chorus]
Gordon, you steady my whole life
Like a harbour holds the tide
Gordon, I found my rest in you
No burden when you're by my side

[Verse 2]
Some mornings the fog won't lift at all
Some days the grey wins out again
But you stay close when the light gets small
You're the warmth I keep from ending

[Pre-chorus]
I've watched the mornings come and go
Watched the water take its time
Now my heart won't wait no more

[Chorus]
Gordon, you steady my whole life
Like a harbour holds the tide
Gordon, I found my rest in you
No burden when you're by my side

[Bridge]
Let the rust keep coming, let it show
We were never meant to shine like new
I'll take you weathered, I'll take you slow
Just as long as I take you

[Chorus]
Gordon, you steady my whole life
Like a harbour holds the tide
Gordon, I found my rest in you
No burden when you're by my side

[Outro]
The railing's rusted, the tide rolls grey
You're still the hand I hold all day
