Verse 1

I left before the kettle sang

With a thermos riding shotgun

The river wore a sheet of mist

And morning had just begun

I tied my old green cap on tight

Set my tackle by the stone

Then watched the first light find the bend

Like it had come to lead me home

Chorus

Yesterday, down by the water

I let the hurry drift away

One cast, one breath, one small bright moment

Was enough to change my day

You don't need a map to find your footing

Or a crowd to make you strong

Sometimes all it takes is stillness

And the will to carry on
