Salt and Iron
Style: Acoustic soul

[Verse 1]
Salt is drying on my collar
Iron hums beneath the water
Long roads taught me how to wait
You were always worth the weight

[Pre-chorus]
I've been quiet, I've been far
But you're the compass, you're the star
So hold this feeling, let it grow

[Chorus]
Paula, you're the steady ground
Paula, you're the surest sound
Through the salt and through the strain
You're the harbour, you're my aim

[Verse 2]
Engines thrum through iron floors
Wool grows heavy, still it's yours
Every mile I keep for you
Nothing else feels half as true

[Bridge]
I don't need the poem or the pier
Just your voice to bring me clear
Plain as bread, steady as stone
This is how I've always known

[Chorus]
Paula, you're the steady ground
Paula, you're the surest sound
Through the salt and through the strain
You're the harbour, you're my aim

[Outro]
The wool dries soft, the engine stills
You're the calm past all the hills
