CAUTION TO THE WIND
We got lost a month or 2 ago
But you seem to think
we take it slow
And you throw caution
You throw caution to the wind
Now it's no use travelling by boat
When going up a steep
and rocky road
But you throw caution
You throw caution to the wind
Now can you see
Can you see where
this is leading?
Can you see
The kind of confusion
that you cause?
It's not that I mind
the exercise
It's just a waste of brains
and good advice, since
You throw caution to the wind
It would help
our common effort so
If you'd share the way
you wannago
But you throw caution
You throw caution to the wind
I bring you food and water
but why would I even bother
I keep anticipating
but still you keep me waiting
I just wanna move on,
wanna move on
The only reason you don't
walk on your own
Is that you'd have to carry all
the weight alone
Since I want to move on,
I get cross
Pretending I don't care
and it's your loss
for throwing caution to the wind
If you really wanna
make your mark
Why don't you
use my wits and
don't keep me in the dark
as you throw caution to the wind
COUNT EVERY STEP
If you count every step
that I take
It is no use to claim
you trust me
And if you judge every move
that I make
You’re sure to find something
you don’t like
And if you keep it coming,
especially this way
You’ll find the lights
have extinguished in my head
I try to keep on running,
but now you make me stay
And mind the little
unimportant
stuff instead
Now you tell me ‘bout
the rumours that you’ve heard
You bet they ain’t true,
but still they must be
I have listened to
all that you have said
But when my turn comes,
you take away the mike!
Once I worked hard,
was in complete control
And I was reporting
about the miles we made
Now my headstart is
crippled by new goals
And you’ve got the nerve
to tell me off in this rude way!
ALL ALONG THE DAY
How is it to see the sun in daylight,
when you ever only saw the moon?
Will the colours smash in bright
when all you’ve seen
is black and white
& after covering your eyes,
you will miss it soon…
Can you imagine seeing mountains,
when all you lived on was flat land?
And when the hills are all you know,
I know that your mind will blow
When first you touch the sea with your hand – and going back, you’ll miss it then…
All the fun stuff I was doing -
I used to be more than fine at home
But now all along the day
you come and make me feel this way
Since I know you …
I seem to feel alone
You look up and see me pacing
like a restless lion in a cage
& if you want me 2 reach out
you have to take away my doubt
& approach me open handed –
so we can turn the page
Now is there a way
that I can tell you?
Well I know that you’re
OK on your own
But lately I have found
that my walls have come down
Since I know you…
I seem to feel alone…
