You Are My Anchor (Celtic Jazz Lounge Duet Version)

Verse 1)The sky turns heavy, the shadows grow longThe wind starts to whisper a unsettling songThe ground underneath me begins to give wayAnd I lose the words that I wanted to sayBut I look across the room, or I call up your nameAnd suddenly the wild world doesn't feel quite as strange(Chorus)You are my anchor when the tide pulls me lowThe one steady hand when the fierce winter blowsWhen the waves crash around me and I'm losing my sightYou hold me down, you're my beacon of lightIn the deepest of oceans, wherever I driftYou're the weight that keeps me still, you're the ultimate gift(Verse 2)I’ve always been prone to just run with the windTo chase every daydream, not knowing where it endsA ship with no compass, just lost out at seaTossed by the chaos of what's inside meBut you stand there smiling, so solid and trueAnd my restless heart finds its center in you(Chorus)You are my anchor when the tide pulls me lowThe one steady hand when the fierce winter blowsWhen the waves crash around me and I'm losing my sightYou hold me down, you're my beacon of lightIn the deepest of oceans, wherever I driftYou're the weight that keeps me still, you're the ultimate gift(Bridge)It’s not that you chain me or hold back my wingsIt’s knowing I have a safe harbor that bringsThe courage to face every storm on the coastBecause you are the place that I love the very mostYeah, the storm can do its worst(Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break)(Chorus)You are my anchor when the tide pulls me lowThe one steady hand when the fierce winter blowsWhen the waves crash around me and I'm losing my sightYou hold me down, you're my beacon of lightIn the deepest of oceans, wherever I driftYou're the weight that keeps me still, you're the ultimate gift(Outro)The storm starts to clearThe water goes stillWith you by my sideI know that I will... stay right here.Yeah, you are my anchor.
