Bare Tree Still Standing
Style: Gospel soul

[Verse 1]
Brown leaves are giving up their hold
You taught me how to stay instead
The bare tree still won't fold
Like something in you I have read

[Pre-chorus]
I have seen you in the losing season
Steady when the branches shake
Give me one more reason

[Chorus]
Caroline, you're the warmth I trust
Through the frost and through the shine
No storm can turn you to dust
Caroline, you feel divine

[Verse 2]
Damp soil holds what the tree let go
You hold me the very same way
Nothing wasted, nothing slow
Love that doesn't wash away

[Chorus]
Caroline, you're the warmth I trust
Through the frost and through the shine
No storm can turn you to dust
Caroline, you feel divine

[Bridge]
Winter comes for every living thing
But you don't ask for sunshine to stay true
I'll be your ground through anything

[Chorus]
Caroline, you're the warmth I trust
Through the frost and through the shine
No storm can turn you to dust
Caroline, you feel divine

[Outro]
Come spring that tree will bloom again
And I'll still be loving you the same
