From the recording What I Just Found (Plain)
The track 5 arrangement of this song contains keyboard, bass, two different lead guitars, rhythm guitar and picking, along with percussion and harmony on parts of the vocals. My daughters heard me singing while playing just the piano and told me that they liked the stripped-down version so I decided to include this extra track with this (plain) version and let the listeners decide which they prefer. The tempo here is also a bit slower.
Lyrics
WHAT I JUST FOUND

I want to weather,
All our storms together.
Make your heart a feather, tethered,
To the sky.
I wouldn't let you love me. Please, now let me try.
I want to sever,
Every dumb or clever,
Jab that ever,
Made you cry.
I wouldn't let you love me. Please, now let me try.
Oh no, don't look away.
Please stay, just turn around.
I can't stand to loose,
What I've just found.
I know I've blundered,
Torn your heart asunder.
Now I'm under water and under ground.
I can't stand to loose,
What I've just found.
I know you'd rather,
Go and gather,
All your things and slip away.
Please don't leave me darkness,
When you make my day.
Oh no, don't let me drown. Toss me some sign or sound.
Oh, how my heart now pounds! Please, please turn around.
I can't stand to loose,
What I've just found.
