Rise in the morning at sunrise
|
Strangers around me sleep soundly at rest
|
Phones and computers become me
|
Signals stretch back to the lands that I've left
|
Oh in the quiet times
|
Count up the things that I love
|
Slip through the road lights
|
The trail of wandering back
|
|
Left you while you were sleeping
|
Left you the warmth in the bed, where I lay
|
You left me a love worth keeping
|
You left me a diary to count off the days
|
And so in the quiet times
|
I saver the things that I've lost
|
And slip through the road lights
|
And wonder how I came to this
|
|
I guess you never know
|
Lost until you have something to lose
|
Choice until you have something to choose
|
Choose
|
|
So give me my quiet times
|
To mourn for the things that I've lost
|
And find me on the road lights
|
Counting the miles and the cost
|
So I never knew
|
Lost cos I had nothing to lose
|
Choice cos I had nothing to choose
|
But all the things you do
|
The way that you close your door
|
The way that you guard your shore
|
Darling, I'm coming home soon
|

A Love Worth Keeping
