Still Waters, Still Warm | The Long Way Home | Track 05-14 | 1970

You came around in the quiet season, When all the noise had lost its rhyme. I never asked you for a reason — You always showed up right on time. The world was pulling me in pieces, But you just held the steady form. Still waters, still warm. Still waters, still warm — You’re the calm behind the storm. When the night runs cold And the days turn torn, I fall right back where I was born — Still waters, still warm. We walked along the edge of something, A line that almost came undone. I felt the turning of the year then, Your hand was steady as the sun. The world kept dragging all its questions, But you remained the quiet norm — Still waters, still warm. Still waters, still warm — You’re the calm behind the storm. When the night runs cold And the days turn torn, I fall right back where I was born — Still waters, still warm. No matter how far I run, You never change your course. You’re the tide that circles home, The light I can’t divorce. Still waters, still warm — You’re the truth I can’t transform. When the sky breaks down And the winds perform, You pull me in, away from harm — Still waters, still warm.
