Album: Room to Roam
Hold me!
before I go under
Hear me!
before I drown
Sharpen!
your sense of wonder
Listen!
to what I've found
Here we are again,
two old lovers,
two old friends,
just when you need them
A devil was standing on my shoes
somehow I know how to defeat him
since I tumbled into you
You taught me love and pain,
and the unsung King or Ireland
says the same thing,
wherever you find it
(the whole world wide over)
The same thing from the same old cause
The same thing - I cannot define it
It is the same thing and it always was
It struck me sad and strange,
all that ever stays the same
is change
and I dreamed I wandered
wayward as a restless wave
Spanning from here to yonder
most spectacularly saved
Dream and life entwined,
the old day cracks and crumbles
and it's
Fine!
to be in your company
Funny!
to be in your day
A miracle!
just to be with you
Glad!
to be going your way
Were these unfolding plans
designed and drawn by mortal hands?
Never in a life of Sundays
would I have seen me here
