Keep Me from Blowing Away

Well, I spent my whole lifetime In a world where the sunshine Finds excuses for not hangin' 'round I squandered emotions On the slightest of notions And the first easy loving I found But soon all of the good times The gay times and 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 are times when I trembled When my mind remembered 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 listening I know, I'm no Christian And I ain't got much coming to me So send down some sunshine And throw out your lifeline And keep me from blowing away Oh Lord, if you hear me Touch me and hold me Keep me from blowing away
