Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
Used to run from every gentle thing,
Kept my heart guarded like a locked-up ring,
Then you showed up without a fight,
And everything got quiet, everything got light.
[chorus]
Now it's gentle, gentle as a quiet Sunday dawning,
No more warnings, no more storm clouds forming,
You're the calm I didn't know I'd find,
Gentle as the slowest peace of mind.
[verse]
No more chasing shadows down the hall,
No more waiting for the other shoe to fall,
Just your hand resting in mine,
Just a feeling steady as the sunshine.
[chorus]
Now it's gentle, gentle as a quiet Sunday dawning,
No more warnings, no more storm clouds forming,
You're the calm I didn't know I'd find,
Gentle as the slowest peace of mind.
[bridge]
I've been down that restless road before,
Never knew what I was searching for,
Now I'm home before I even try,
Easy as the morning light.
[chorus]
Now it's gentle, gentle as a quiet Sunday dawning,
No more warnings, no more storm clouds forming,
You're the calm I didn't know I'd find,
Gentle as the slowest peace of mind.
