Part 1

 

A twice shy girl

So bruised and battered

A heart mistreated by

anyone that mattered

That she’s still going

isnt so surprising

even from the downside

It’s only

hope that’s rising

but she

keeps on rolling

Just needs

Just needs someone to take her on

 

Too hard living

 when it's

so mean and vicious

Lit by the bonfire

of your

burning bridges

but she

keeps on rolling

just needs

just needs someone to take her on

 

she

keep on rolling

just needs

just needs someone 

 

Part 2

 

Bare are the memories of

familiar faces

funny pages

Flash lit the times when life

has eddied to those safer places

Build high upon the ruins of

old foundations

Where nothing’s sacred

but the memory of when

She brings you to your heart again

and helps you find the  strength

to keep on rolling, keep on moving, to keep on keeping on

 

Part 3

 

Walking out into union station

Standing still in the people moving

Everybody is going somewhere

in their own quiet desperation

Staring out of the window and I’m

 fogging out the pane

Don’t know where I might be bound but I’ll

Keep on moving

Keep on rolling

Keep on keeping on

 

Part 4 - insturmental

Part 5- insturmental

Part 6 - instumental

 

Part 2 reprise

 

Coming in on a greyhound I still see you on the platform waving

Don’t know where I might be bound

But I’ll keep on rolling, keep  on moving

Keep on keeping on

 

Part 1 reprise

 

A twice shy girl

Will never be defeated

she knows that it only takes a kindess

To feel completed

So she

Keeps on rolling

Just needs someone.

Just need someone

To take her on.

 

She keeps on rolling,

just needs

Just need someone

To take her on.
