Be Still, My Love

Be still, my love... You cannot run This unravelling... Is now done Be still, my love... I found you In forests of richest green Picking wildflowers of blue Be still, my love... Come to the fire In a deepening night Watch the stars above Be still, my love... The heart quickening Under starlight Stay with me till morning Be still, my love... No more running Such beauty and strength I have found wanting Be still, my love... For, now you know A quickening heart A soft glow Be still, my love... In a dawn sky Filled with colour Is a place for you and I Be still, my love... You cannot run This travelling... Is now done
