"Keep Me From Blowing Away" lyrics

"Keep Me From Blowing Away"

Well, I've spent my whole lifetime
In a world where the sunshine
Found excuses for not hangin' 'round
And I've squandered emotions
At the slightest of notions
On the first easy woman I found
But soon all the good times
The gay times, the play times
Like colors run together and fade
Oh Lord, if you hear me
Touch me and hold me
And keep me from blowing away

There's times when I tremble
When my mind remembers
The days that just crumbled away
With nothing to show
But these lines that I know
Are beginning to show in my face
Oh Lord, if you're listenin'
I know I'm no Christian
And I ain't got much comin' to me
So send down some sunshine
And throw out your lifeline
And keep me from blowing away

Yeah, send down some sunshine
And throw out your lifeline
And keep me from blowing away
