My Steadiest Ground

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some mornings feel like heavy stone, The world's asleep, you rise alone. You climb into that steel machine, You move the earth, you keep it clean. But underneath the working man, There's more to you than most understand. [Chorus] You are my rock, you are my ground, The steadiest love I've ever found. Even when the shadows fall, You're standing tall through it all. Danny, don't you ever doubt, You're the light I can't live without. [Verse 2] You tend your mother, gentle, near, Ninety-nine years you hold so dear. You give your hands, you give your days, In quiet, unassuming ways. And when the darkness clouds your view, Let me be the one who carries you. [Chorus] You are my rock, you are my ground, The steadiest love I've ever found. Even when the shadows fall, You're standing tall through it all. Danny, don't you ever doubt, You're the light I can't live without. [Bridge] So lay your worries in my hands, There's nothing here to understand but this — Whatever miles come between, I choose you, I choose us, I mean it. [Verse 3] Danny Turcotte, hear me now, You are enough, I'll show you how. The useless weight you think you bear, It isn't true, I've always cared. Forgive the storms, forgive the strain, My love for you will still remain. [Chorus] You are my rock, you are my ground, The steadiest love I've ever found. Even when the shadows fall, You're standing tall through it all. Danny, don't you ever doubt, You're the light I can't live without. [Outro] The love of my life, that's who you are, My steady hand, my brightest star.
