If I'm hoping I'll get bolder
If I'm waiting on a squall
Is this weather passing over?
While my heads inside the storm
When the wind whips up a fuss
and i'm battered down,
The rolling of the boat
Keeps me off the ground
While my own two feet
Can't cope with the up and down.
I keep you in mind
I'll keep you in mind
When i'm stuck in foreign waters
With my tread against the waves
You're the only thing I think of,
As land floats far away.
While the wind whips up a fuss
and i'm battered down
When the boat is gone
and theres no sight or sound
When i reach out,
When i hold out for your warmth.
In a sea of strange doubt
I couldn't need you any more.
There's something in that notion,
Keeps my chin above the break
A feeling so familiar
I'm living for its sake.
When the wind whips up that fuss and i'm battered down
When the rolling of the boat keeps me off the ground
When my own two feet can't cope with the up and down.
I keep you in mind.
The first time i heard 'Shoeboxes' by David, i felt desperately touched. Such an expressionful, soulful honest songwriter who deserves more recognition than he gets. Joseph Lofthouse
