Steady in My Storm

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It started with the bowling lanes, Two friends just killing time, Never knew those easy nights Would turn your heart to mine. No money in our pockets then, Just backroads and the sky, We'd drive and chase the beauty Of a world going by. [Chorus] Rena, you're the steady in my storm, The calm that keeps me warm, You forgave me every fall, Loved me through it all. I couldn't do this life, Wouldn't want to even try, Without you by my side. [Verse 2] Ninety-four you gave me a girl With your smile and your eyes, Then a boy in oh-two came along, Our family, our prize. You stood behind each crazy dream, Every road I tried, Held on through my temper And you never left my side. [Chorus] Rena, you're the steady in my storm, The calm that keeps me warm, You forgave me every fall, Loved me through it all. I couldn't do this life, Wouldn't want to even try, Without you by my side. [Bridge] You ground me when I'm shaking, You bring the peace I need, Every mistake you carried, You set my heart free. [Verse 3] Now the house is quiet, love, The kids are grown and gone, Grandbabies on our laps, And we just carry on. So blessed to call you mine, Rena, through the years, Still driving, still dreaming, Still wiping happy tears. [Chorus] Rena, you're the steady in my storm, The calm that keeps me warm, You forgave me every fall, Loved me through it all. I couldn't do this life, Wouldn't want to even try, Without you by my side. [Outro] Just because I love you so, That's all I'm trying to say, My heart is yours, sweet Rena, Now and every day.
