Lyrics
Confines
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Life is just, life is keen
I put in work, do my thing
To keep me merrily on the scene
Keep me merrily on the scene
Make me wise, take me far
Says the mind unto the heart
Keep me merrily on the scene
Keep me merrily on the scene
In life’s confines I try
In life’s confines I try to let my soul refine
But never mind how fast you go
We all shine then burn over
Like the stars in the night
So cast a dream and watch it glide
To keep you merrily on the scene
Keep you merrily on the scene
'Cause in life’s confines
We’ve got to let our souls refine
And if this light should burn out
May we carry on child
Gently down the stream
In life’s confines I try
In life’s confines I try to let my soul refine
'Til you break down
Do what the lovers do
'Til you can't go on a long way
Let it grow happy
Do what lovers do
Let it grow
