Still Waters
Beside still waters that run so deep
Angels whisper, lovers weep
Love wanders into hearts for keeps
Such secret passage where passion seeps
Unseen yet felt
unheard, unsaid
Friends before lovers
Thats how we kept ahead
Unknown, never frightened
The doubts only served to tighten
Angels wings, angelic spread
The simple cord of loves tying thread
Unasked for yet receiving
Ungrateful times held meaning
There's no one else for me
No one's lessons ever taught me
And how my words connect
In this life to the next
Darling can't they ever see
We spoke in rhythmic melody
In tune, in time, in verse, in tongues
The island we found where we belong
Still waters flow with style and grace
The lasting impression of your sweet face
Cascade the falls from waters rush
Hand in hand we bathed in love
Uncertain, yet believing
Leaving without grieving
Where Angels whisper, and lovers weep
Without hesitation, we took the leap
Such secret passage where passion seeps
Angels whisper, lovers weep
Beside still waters that run so deep
Love wandered into our hearts for keeps
