The Steady Arms I Know

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It started simple, nothing grand A bag of pecans, eggs in my hand Who knew that gift would light a flame That every year would burn the same Saturday nights, the old VFW Slow dancing close, just me and you [Chorus] And oh, I love the way you love me Through the storms you never let go You make me feel so welcome, safe and warm The steady arms I've come to know When no one else could see me through Somehow you always do [Verse 2] I gave you reasons to walk away But Deb, you stayed through every gray You put us all before your own You made this house a healing home And when the fight tried takin' me You held my hand so tenderly [Chorus] And oh, I love the way you love me Through the storms you never let go You make me feel so welcome, safe and warm The steady arms I've come to know When no one else could see me through Somehow you always do [Bridge] You don't hear it near enough So hear me now, my love, my Deb When there's no one else, I'll always be Right by your side, come what may Through every trial, come what may [Verse 3] Now days are heavy, skies are wide But we will face them side by side Whatever comes, we'll stand and stay Like dancing floors and yesterday You made me better, made me whole You're my heartbeat, my very soul [Chorus] And oh, I love the way you love me Through the storms you never let go You make me feel so welcome, safe and warm The steady arms I've come to know When no one else could see me through Deb, I'll always love you [Outro] From pecans, eggs, and dancing slow To all the years we've come to know I love you more than words can say My Deb, my love, my every day
