KEEP MY FEET

 


KEEP MY FEET

MOONLIGHT SHINING DOWN

 

ALL AROUND US

 

I'M SO GLAD I SAW THE WAY

 

TO YOUR HEART

 

HURRIED EVERY STEP

 

NOT TO MISS THE CHANCE

 

TO TAKE YOUR HAND

 

LEND YOUR LOVE TO GUIDE ME

 

FROM SOME DARK CORNER

 

INTO YOUR LIGHT

 

 

YOUR SAVING GRACE FINDS ME

 

I NEED NO OTHER SIGN

 

I DON'T NEED CONVINCING

 

I'M ALREADY COMMITTED TO THIS

 

SPINNING EVER FASTER

 

TRYING TO KEEP MY FEET

 

MAKE SOME TIME AND STILL

 

GET SOME SLEEP 

 

CAUGHT BETWEEN THE TWILIGHT

 

 AND THE DAWN 

 

THE SKIES REVEAL THE STARS

 

AND WONDERS HOLD ME FAST

 

I TRY TO PASS 

 

I CLOSE MY EYES

 

MYSTERIES DEMAND ME

 

TRY TO COMMAND MY ATTENTION

 

MAKE ME FORGET WHY I CAME

 

THERE'S NO ELSE TO BLAME BUT ME

 

 

SHE LIES SLEEPING

 

THAT'S WHERE I'M GOING TO

 

IF I MAY JOIN HER

 

BEFORE THE NIGHT IS THROUGH

 

WITH ONE HAND

 

I FEEL YOU THERE

 

SO UNAWARE

 

WHY DO I STILL INSIST

 

I SHOULD BE DREAMING 

 

JUST LIKE YOU

 

IT GOES THAT I'VE TRIED TO

 

 

I TRY TO KEEP MY FEET

 

AS IT SPINS EVER FASTER

 

I KNOW I'LL MAKE IT THROUGH

 

SOMEWHERE TWEEN TWILIGHT AND DAWN 

 

I'LL CARRY ON

 

UNTIL I FIND A WAY

 

TO KEEP ME

 

SQUARELY IN YOUR SIGHTS
