It's a still life watercolor
Of a now late afternoon
As the sun shines through the curtain lace
And shadows wash the room

The Dangling Conversation
Simon and Garfunkel

Sylvia said...

You're still the one that I love to touch
Still the one and I can't get enough
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

Still The One ~ Orleans

Ronnie said...

I spoke to you in cautious tones,
You answered me with no pretense,
And still I fear I said too much,
My silence is my self-defense.

And So It Goes
Billy Joel

Still, still, still
One can hear the falling snow
For all is hushed
The world is sleeping
Holy star its vigil keeping
Still, still, still
One can hear the falling snow.

-Christmas carol (Austrian, I think?)

Well the sun is surely sinking down
But the moon is slowly rising
So this old world must still be spinning round
And I still love you

You Can Close Your Eyes
James Taylor

Be still and know that I am God

From a bunch of songs including one of the Psalms (originally sung, although obviously I don't know the tune), a chorus, and a song by Steven Curtis Chapman.

we talked about some old times
And we drank ourselves some beers
Still crazy after all these years

In the still of the night
I held you, held you tight

Sweethearts walk by together
And I still miss someone

I first heard it by Joan Baez, but Johnny Cash recorded it and I think maybe his daughter wrote it?

There is some discussion of "Still" here:

Is the ice still on the river?
Are the old folks still the same?
And by the way
Did she mention my name?

Gordon Lightfoot

Just because I saw her then went all to pieces
She thinks I still care

John and Linda live in Omaha
Joe is somewhere on the road
We lost Davy in the Korean War
I still don't know what for
Don't matter anymore

Brenda and Eddie were still going steady in the summer of '75
When they decided the marriage would be at the end of July

with every mistake we must surely be learning,
still my guitar gently weeps

These are *so good* today!

When there is no pebble tossed
Nor wind to blow

Time stand still
I'm not looking back, but I want to look around me now
Time stand still
See more of the people and the places that surround me now

And if I had an air-o-plane
I still couldn't make it on time

And the last thing I see is my heart
Still beating
Rising out of my body and flying away
Like a bat out of hell

And still
My world stood still
I couldn't move
And all I could feel
Was this aching in my heart
Saying I loved him still.

Reba McEntire
I don't really like this song. Too much of a "victim" song, as Barbara Streisand would say. I don't like playing songs I don't like, but it's been playing in my head since this category started.

and I wonder,
still I wonder,
who'll stop the rain

Quiet now
still of night
inside fire burning bright
Right moment
laying down
oh, still no sound...

"When You and I Were Young, Maggie"

The green grove is gone from the hill, Maggie
Where first the daisies sprung
The creaking old mill is still, Maggie
Since you and I were young

The more I see,
The more I see there is to see
And she is still a mystery to me.

Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
Oh and you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you
I could drink a case of you darling
And I would still be on my feet
Oh Id still be on my feet

Joni Michell - a case of you

Be still my beating heart, it would be better to be cool, it's not healthy to run at this pace the blood runs so red to my face.

Be still my beating heart - Sting
