Beneath still waters

A song I love. I grew up listening to a lot of ABBA, Olivia Newton John, The Carpenters, Emmylou Harris and a bunch more from Dad and Mom's collections. Such beautiful melody and simple but honest lyrics.


Beneath still waters
There's a strong undertow
The surface won't tell you
What the deep water knows
Darling, I'm saying
I know something's wrong
Beneath still waters
Your love is gone

Even a fool could see
That you'll soon be leaving me
But each and every heart
Must take its turn at misery

And this time it's me
And I'll cry alone
Beneath still waters
Your love is gone

Even a fool could see
That you'll soon be leaving me
But each and every heart
Must take its turn at misery

And this time it's me
And I'll cry alone
Beneath still waters
Your love is gone
Beneath still waters
Your love is gone
Beneath still waters
Your love is gone 

- Emmylou Harris
