Lyrics
Still Are Those Waters Sue Bargh 2007
Softly the grey grass does dance and play slow
Still are the waters where young families go
Seventeen chicks in a queue paddle by
And the first time I loved you was under that sky
Am C G ~
Still are those waters, wild is my heart
Am C G~
Serene is the sky wherever thou art
G Am
Sure are your lips, when ever we meet
C b/C D G~
Softly I love you, my darling, my sweet
G C D
Fragrant the pine cones hold on to the tree
G C D
Still is the water where you first held me
Am C G
Seventeen geese danced on smooth silver sand
C G
And I?d stay here forever, just holding your hand
Am C G~
Still are those waters, wild is my heart
Am C G~
Serene is the sky where ever thou art
G Am
Sure are your lips, when ever we meet
C b/ C D G~
Softly I love you, my darling, my sweet
G C D
Remember each spring comes new life from old wood
G C D
Still is the water where lonely hearts stood
Am C G
Seventeen times I tried love before
C G
But none were as pure that day on this shore
Am C G~
Still are those waters, wild is my heart
Am C G~
Serene is the sky where ever thou art
G Am
Sure are your lips, when ever we meet
C b /C D G~
Softly I love you, my darling, my sweet
