Frost on the Tyre
Style: Slow R&B

[Verse 1]
Frost cracks soft beneath our boots
Dusk is settling on the yard
Old tyre gone stiff and grey
Yet you still hold my heart hard

[Pre-chorus]
Nothing here needs to be said
The light is nearly out of reach
Still I want you close instead

[Chorus]
Nellie, you're the warm in this cold night
Steady as the ground we stand on
You're the reason dusk feels right
Nellie, long after the light is gone

[Verse 2]
Your breath shows white in the air
You don't rush to fill the quiet
We stand by the frozen wheel
Calm moves in and calls off the riot

[Bridge]
No need for a bigger scene than this
Just your hand finding mine in the cold
This is the whole of it, plain as breath
Simple as a love that's grown old

[Chorus]
Nellie, you're the warm in this cold night
Steady as the ground we stand on
You're the reason dusk feels right
Nellie, long after the light is gone

[Outro]
The frost will thaw by morning light
But you're the warmth I'll always find
