Wire and Frost
Style: Motown ballad

[Verse 1]
Frost has climbed the old wire fence
Cabbages standing frozen still
But you make the cold make sense
You warm me up against my will

[Chorus]
Nehemiah, you're my quiet fire
Steady when the whole world's grey
Something in you climbing higher
Nehemiah, you're here to stay

[Verse 2]
Every jagged line of frost
Found its shape and held it true
Nothing simple gets me lost
Like the plain, sure fact of you

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need the sky to burn
I don't need a grand design
Just the way you slowly turn

[Chorus]
Nehemiah, you're my quiet fire
Steady when the whole world's grey
Something in you climbing higher
Nehemiah, you're here to stay

[Bridge]
Cold can dress a fence up fine
But it can't hold what we hold
You're the warmth beneath the shine
You're the reason I'm not cold

[Chorus]
Nehemiah, you're my quiet fire
Steady when the whole world's grey
Something in you climbing higher
Nehemiah, you're here to stay

[Outro]
The frost will melt off rusted wire
But you'll still be my quiet fire
