  Verse 1

  The sign still swings above the rail Old iron waits for a train that's late Nothing here runs on time anymore But you, you never fail

  Chorus

  Connor, you are my honour Steady when the wind gets stronger I'm not a goner while you're near Connor, I'd wait here for you, Connor

  Verse 2

  Tracks go quiet, the platform clears Everyone else has caught their train I'm still standing right where I was You kept me here for years

  Pre-chorus

  Every sign points somewhere else But my feet won't leave this ground I keep hearing your name like a call

  Chorus

  Connor, you are my honour Steady when the wind gets stronger I'm not a goner while you're near Connor, I'd wait here for you, Connor

  Bridge

  Let the timetable flap and tear I don't need a schedule to know Every road I take leads back To the one place I want to go

  Chorus

  Connor, you are my honour Steady when the wind gets stronger I'm not a goner while you're near Connor, I'd wait here for you, Connor

  Outro

  The sign still swings, the tracks stay bare I'd wait a lifetime for you there

  Verse 1

  I lean on railings gone rusted green Watching the water sit grey and still There's little colour left in this scene But you're the warmth I feel and I will

  Pre-chorus

  The sky won't lift, the light stays low I'm not asking for more than this Just you, right here, before I go

  Chorus

  Connor, you're the steady thing I trust This grey won't touch what's real and true Nothing here could turn to dust Not while I'm standing here with you, Connor

  Verse 2

  The wind comes cold off the water's edge I don't flinch, not with you this near You're the promise kept, the given pledge The only thing I never fear

  Bridge

  Skies like this could make you sad But holding you, I don't feel low You turn the greyest day I've had Into somewhere I want to go

  Chorus

  Connor, you're the steady thing I trust This grey won't touch what's real and true Nothing here could turn to dust Not while I'm standing here with you, Connor

  Outro

  The railings still stand rusted green But you're the brightest thing I've seen

  Verse 1

  I watched the fire lose its height Down to a low and steady light You sat there quiet, close to me No need for noise, no need to see

  Chorus

  Connor, you're the warmth I trust Long after the flame turns to dust Connor, steady, low and true There's no cold I fear with you

  Verse 2

  The logs gave in without a sound Soft grey settling on the ground You reached and stirred the embers bright Something in me caught the light

  Pre-chorus

  I don't need the roar or the blaze Just this hush at the end of days Something in me leans your way

  Chorus

  Connor, you're the warmth I trust Long after the flame turns to dust Connor, steady, low and true There's no cold I fear with you

  Bridge

  Let the loud part burn out first Let it turn to ash, not worse What stays low will stay the longest That's the part in you that's strongest

  Chorus

  Connor, you're the warmth I trust Long after the flame turns to dust Connor, steady, low and true There's no cold I fear with you

  Outro

  The grate holds soft what fire has done You're the warmth that lingers on
