Hold Like a Ring
Style: Country waltz

[Verse 1]
I found you where the rail runs cold
Salt on my hands, my heart on hold
You caught me like a ring in flight
Held me steady through that night

[Pre-chorus]
The water's dark but you're the shore
You're the calm I'm reaching for
Say the word and I'll hold on more

[Chorus]
Nansi, you're the ring that holds me true
Salt and storm, I'd choose you
Nansi, dancing slow through wind and rain
You're the one that steadies my chain

[Verse 2]
Paint's gone thin but the ring still holds
Same as love when it grows old
You don't shine like something new
But you're the one I'm tied to

[Bridge]
Let the water stay however dark
You're the steady beat, my heart's own mark
No romancy needed, no fancy show
Just your hand in mine, easy and slow

[Chorus]
Nansi, you're the ring that holds me true
Salt and storm, I'd choose you
Nansi, dancing slow through wind and rain
You're the one that steadies my chain

[Outro]
The rail still holds against the tide
And I still hold you, Nansi, by my side
