  Verse 1

  Salt dries slow on the grey railing the crossing long, the water still failing to shake the boat from its steady line and I keep thinking how you hold me, standing

  Pre-chorus

  I've watched the water change a hundred ways I've counted every one of your quiet days and none of it prepared me for this pull

  Chorus

  Dana, you're the calm inside the weather the hand I reach for, holding on together you move through storms in your own steady manner nobody anchors me like you, Dana

  Verse 2

  The railing's cold but your voice isn't every mile we cross, I notice how you never make the silence heavy you make it something I can rest in

  Chorus

  Dana, you're the calm inside the weather the hand I reach for, holding on together you move through storms in your own steady manner nobody anchors me like you, Dana

  Bridge

  Let the deck rock, let the wind decide I'm not afraid when you're beside me this isn't new, and it isn't old it's just you, and that's enough to hold

  Chorus

  Dana, you're the calm inside the weather the hand I reach for, holding on together you move through storms in your own steady manner nobody anchors me like you, Dana

  Outro

  The salt will dry, the railing will rust but I'll still choose you, still and just

  Verse 1

  Dust hangs still between the sleeves Nobody else would ever stop Time slows down when you're the reason You make me forget the clock

  Chorus

  Dana, you're the quiet part No need to raise your voice at all Dana, you don't have to try You're steady when the rest might fall

  Verse 2

  You touch each cover like it matters Careful with the smallest things Nothing here is worth much money But you make it worth keeping

  Pre-chorus

  I keep watching how you choose Slow and sure with everything Something in me wants to stay here

  Chorus

  Dana, you're the quiet part No need to raise your voice at all Dana, you don't have to try You're steady when the rest might fall

  Bridge

  Nobody's filming this, no crowd Just light and dust and you and me This is the kind of love that lasts Plain as a Tuesday, quiet, free

  Chorus

  Dana, you're the quiet part No need to raise your voice at all Dana, you don't have to try You're steady when the rest might fall

  Outro

  Dust will settle where it wants I'll still be here, still loving you

  Verse 1

  Warm air fogs the wooden pane Water runs in a slow line You keep the small house growing Nothing in there but what's mine

  Pre-chorus

  Outside the frost is climbing Inside the green stays true Something in me keeps deciding

  Chorus

  Dana, you're the warmth that stays Steam on glass, a quiet plan Nobody built a room like this Nobody else but Dana can

  Verse 2

  You wipe the pane with your sleeve Just to see the rows still there Careful with the smallest things That's a kind of love, that care

  Chorus

  Dana, you're the warmth that stays Steam on glass, a quiet plan Nobody built a room like this Nobody else but Dana can

  Bridge

  Let the whole world turn to winter Let the frost take every field We've got heat enough between us Nothing out there gets to win

  Chorus

  Dana, you're the warmth that stays Steam on glass, a quiet plan Nobody built a room like this Nobody else but Dana can

  Outro

  Drops still run down the same pane Still your hand that wipes it clear
