The Grey Sock by the Door
Style: Folk duet

[Verse 1]
A grey sock hangs on the rusted latch
Left there since the morning rain
Small thing that nobody else would catch
But it says your name to me again

[Chorus]
Jane, you steady me like nothing else
You and I, we don't need to explain
Some folks chase the wind and bells
But I would choose you, Jane, again

[Verse 2]
I've watched you move through ordinary rooms
Making plain things feel like gain
You hum some tune that lifts the gloom
And I forget the world outside the pane

[Pre-chorus]
No grand words, no aching speech
Just you, still here, still plain
And that's the truth I'm trying to reach

[Chorus]
Jane, you steady me like nothing else
You and I, we don't need to explain
Some folks chase the wind and bells
But I would choose you, Jane, again

[Bridge]
Through the loud years and the low
Through the sun and through the strain
You're the constant thing I know
The hand I reach for in the rain

[Chorus]
Jane, you steady me like nothing else
You and I, we don't need to explain
Some folks chase the wind and bells
But I would choose you, Jane, again

[Outro]
That sock still hangs there by the door
And I love you plainer than before
