Rolling

When things get to rolling
You’ll know exactly 
How I’ve been holding 
On, through all these days

And I know, I’ve been away 
For how long, I can’t say
And I’ll make tomorrow
Just by surviving this day

When things get to rolling
You’ll know exactly 
How I’ve been holding 
On, through all these days

Along with change
Becomes a seasons delay
And I know now 
Though you wish me here
That I can’t stay
Days are keeping me away

When things get to rolling
You’ll know exactly 
How I’ve been holding 
On, through all these days

And though you see
The things
That I’ve become
You touch me still 
And it won’t be long
Until I’m all wrong

And though you see
All these things
That I’ve become
You touch me still 
And it won’t be long
Until I’m all wrong

When things get to rolling
You’ll know exactly 
How I’ve been holding 
On, through all these days
And all these nights
