All That Keeps You Going Lyrics by Bill Staines

Looking For the Wind

0

[Verse 1]
When the princes and peasants
Each look back at you the same
When a friend that you've known before
Can't quite recall your name
When each morning there's a cloudy sky
That keeps the sun from showing
Then you'll know you are your own
Sometimes that's all that keeps you going
[Verse 2]
'Neath the chimneys and the rooftops
Of the village safe and sound
No one sees the faces or hears the feet
That walk the morning ground
And the stillness of the alleys
And the highways keeps a-growing
So you say you are your own
And that alone will keep you going
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Through the dampness of the dawn
Down by the road you walk alone
And you think on the days when you had laughed
Or all the love you've known
But your head is now avoiding thoughts
Of times you'll soon be knowing
When to say you are are your own
Ain't quite enough to keep you going
[Verse 1]
When the princes and peasants
Each look back at you the same
When a friend that you've known before
Can't quite recall your name
When each morning there's a cloudy sky
That keeps the sun from showing
And you know you are your own
Sometimes that's all that keeps you going
And you know you are your own
Sometimes that's all that keeps you going
