  Verse 1

  Rain comes down on the concrete ground Metal doorway drips without a sound I stand here and I think of you Steady as the rain comes through

  Pre-chorus

  Some things fall and just get gone Some things stay and carry on You're the one I'm holding onto

  Chorus

  Evan, you're the calm in the storm Two simple names that keep me warm Evan, you're the steady beat Water on the door, love, at my feet

  Verse 2

  I've watched a hundred rains go by Never once did I wonder why You're the one that stayed through it all Never flinched when the water falls

  Bridge

  Doesn't take a storm to prove it true Just takes me standing here with you Quiet drops, they never lie You're the reason I don't ask why

  Chorus

  Evan, you're the calm in the storm Two simple names that keep me warm Evan, you're the steady beat Water on the door, love, at my feet

  Outro

  Rain will dry and doors will close Still I'll love you, that much I know

  Verse 1

  Grass keeps low against the wind Nothing here stands tall and proud But you don't bend the way it does You hold your ground beneath the cloud

  Pre-chorus

  I've watched the grey roll in for miles Watched the light go thin and small But you're the one thing I count on

  Chorus

  Evan, you're the steady part of me Through every grey and every storm Not seven skies could pull us free You're the quiet I call home

  Verse 2

  The hillside doesn't ask for much Just holds on through the wind and rain You never asked for much from me And still you stayed through my whole strain

  Bridge

  I don't need heaven to feel sure I've got this ground, I've got your hand Whatever weather comes for us We'll meet it standing, we'll still stand

  Chorus

  Evan, you're the steady part of me Through every grey and every storm Not seven skies could pull us free You're the quiet I call home

  Outro

  The grass lies down and rises still I'll keep on loving you, I will

  Verse 1

  The water comes and takes the sand away I watch the small marks disappear But you're not something made of sand You're the one thing here that stays clear

  Pre-chorus

  Everything else keeps changing shape Every certainty runs thin But there's a place that doesn't move

  Chorus

  Evan, you're the mark that doesn't fade Steady when the tide comes in Nothing washes you away from me Evan, that's the truth I'm sure of, Evan

  Verse 2

  I used to think love left no trace Just footprints that the sea undid But you kept showing up at dawn Long after every wave had hid

  Pre-chorus

  Everything else keeps changing shape Every certainty runs thin But there's a place that doesn't move

  Chorus

  Evan, you're the mark that doesn't fade Steady when the tide comes in Nothing washes you away from me Evan, that's the truth I'm sure of, Evan

  Bridge

  Let the water take whatever it wants I'm not afraid of what it takes You're not written in the sand You're the ground the whole shore makes

  Chorus

  Evan, you're the mark that doesn't fade Steady when the tide comes in Nothing washes you away from me Evan, that's the truth I'm sure of, Evan

  Outro

  The water can have the sand tonight You're the one thing it won't find
