Boots by the Door
Style: Blues slow dance

[Verse 1]
You left your boots out by the gate
Caked in mud from the frozen field
I stood there long past it turning late
Thinking how much my heart's revealed

[Chorus]
Harriet, you're the one I carry
Through the cold and the closing door
No one else I'd ever marry
I've said it once, I'll say it more

[Verse 2]
You walk in tired, you don't say much
Just kick them off and take my hand
I've learned the language of your touch
Better than any words could stand

[Pre-chorus]
Some folks need the fire to prove it
I just need you here tonight
One more field, we'll get on through it

[Chorus]
Harriet, you're the one I carry
Through the cold and the closing door
No one else I'd ever marry
I've said it once, I'll say it more

[Bridge]
Whatever debt this life may claim
I'll pay it gladly, in your name
No merit needed, no big reason
Just you and me through every season

[Chorus]
Harriet, you're the one I carry
Through the cold and the closing door
No one else I'd ever marry
I've said it once, I'll say it more

[Outro]
Two boots still standing by the gate
Mine right next to yours, and staying
