  Verse 1

  Salt frosts the rail beneath my hand You steady me against the swell We watch the water lose the land And still I know this ends up well

  Pre-chorus

  Every engine hums a low goodbye But you keep facing into it Nothing here has made me want to fly

  Chorus

  Ann, you're the calm the whole deck needs Salt in the air, and you're my plan Wherever this old engine leads I'd cross it twice for you, Ann

  Verse 2

  You lean in closer when the spray comes hard Laughing like the cold's a joke we share Nothing about you feels like a guard You just stay, and that is rare

  Bridge

  No map could hold what keeps me here It isn't distance, isn't chance It's how you turn and know no fear Steady as the ship's advance

  Chorus

  Ann, you're the calm the whole deck needs Salt in the air, and you're my plan Wherever this old engine leads I'd cross it twice for you, Ann

  Outro

  The rail still holds the salt and spray You're the one thing steady on this run

  Verse 1

  You hand me the lime like it's nothing Your fingers brush mine, barely touching The counter is sticky, the night's half gone But something in me clicks into on

  Pre-chorus

  I've watched you move through crowded rooms I know your laugh before it blooms Something's building, and I won't hold back

  Chorus

  Ann, you're the reason I stayed past two Nobody else does what you do I fell slow, the way good things can Steady and sure, that's how it began, Ann

  Verse 2

  You wipe the counter, catch my eye Say something dry that makes me sigh It isn't much, this little scene But it's the realest thing I've seen

  Pre-chorus

  I've watched you move through crowded rooms I know your laugh before it blooms Something's building, and I won't hold back

  Chorus

  Ann, you're the reason I stayed past two Nobody else does what you do I fell slow, the way good things can Steady and sure, that's how it began, Ann

  Bridge

  Doesn't matter if it's new or old However this love story gets told You're the one I keep coming back to find

  Chorus

  Ann, you're the reason I stayed past two Nobody else does what you do I fell slow, the way good things can Steady and sure, that's how it began, Ann

  Outro

  Pass me the lime one more time I'll take this slow, and call it mine

  Verse 1

  Wet leaves stuck where your boots pressed down Frozen grass still holds the mark you made I walk that path when you're not near You left your print here like a plan

  Pre-chorus

  I never needed the whole story Just the shape of you walking ahead Something in me keeps following that

  Chorus

  Ann, you steady me without trying There's no version of this without Ann Quiet as frost, sure as the season You're the one true thing since this began

  Verse 2

  Some mornings the ground is hard and still You move through it like it's nothing new I watch the way you don't look back Steady as anyone I've known

  Pre-chorus

  I never needed the whole story Just the shape of you walking ahead Something in me keeps following that

  Chorus

  Ann, you steady me without trying There's no version of this without Ann Quiet as frost, sure as the season You're the one true thing since this began

  Bridge

  No grand words, just this small proof Your steps still calling me to follow Whatever comes, however long the span I'll keep choosing you, plain as I can

  Chorus

  Ann, you steady me without trying There's no version of this without Ann Quiet as frost, sure as the season You're the one true thing since this began

  Outro

  The grass will thaw, the prints will fade I'm still walking where you led
