Keeper Songtext
von Marlee MacLeod

I wish my eyes were blue
Ever since I saw you I′ve felt covetous
But I guess green will do
Just goes to show you that
Some of us are out of the sky
And other ones are underwater
You made yourself up some means
And I am still my mother's daughter

You′re a keeper and I'm a Calamity Jane
And all my witty repartee
Is well rehearsed in every way
And I've been a believer
That you′ve got a line to the saints
My big eyed dreams, my feet of clay
My life here as a devotee


Forgive my attitude
This is just a matter for the two of us
But nothing else will do
I′m trying to tell you that
Few of us can measure up
Few possess your fascination
Some of us can wait around
And some of us are not that patient

You're a keeper and I′m a Calamity Jane
My life is only day to day
My evidence is hearsay
And I've been a believer
That you′ve got a line to the saints
And I've led more than one astray
But you see like an x-ray

Do you think maybe you could tell me what to do?
You could show me how you work it
And I could be like you

You′re a keeper and I'm a Calamity Jane
And all my witty repartee
Is well rehearsed in every way
And I've been a believer
That you′ve got a line to the saints
My big eyed dreams, my feet of clay
My life here as a devotee
