Shape I’m In Songtext
von Sandi Thom

I wake up to the dawn
I′m a stranger in my bed
With one eye on the circling sun
I raise my weary head
Pick up my bags and bones
And take one square step to the door
With another twist of fate
I'm heading off to foreign shores
And the daylight turns to dark
And I still got color in my cheeks
Got a pocket full of remedies
And a world beneath my feet
I don′t need a ring of gold
Or silver buckles on my shoes
I got the sunshine redeemed in my soul
Baby that's what gets me through


And I keep on rolling by
Keep on riding high
Yeah, up and down and around and away we go
'Cause I don′t need to know
What′s coming 'round the bend
I′m gonna keep my shape
No matter what shape I'm in

And the beating of the drum
Is like the beating of my heart
′Cause every day gets harder, baby
Since we've been apart
You can tie me in a knot
Or bind me up in chains
I got a little piece of heaven, baby
And that′s what keeps me sane

And I keep on rolling by
Keep on riding high
Yeah, up and down and around and away we go
'Cause I don't need to know
What′s coming ′round the bend
I'm gonna keep my shape
No matter what shape I′m in
Whoa, yeah


'Cause it′s six in the morning
And my mind's in a daze
And I′m thinking of you
Yeah, I'm thinking of you
And it's getting me through, yeah

Keep on rolling by
Keep on riding high
Yeah, up and down and around and away we go
′Cause I don′t need to know
What's coming ′round the bend
I'm gonna keep my shape
No matter what shape I′m in
And I keep on rolling by
Keep on riding high
Yeah, up and down and around and away we go
'Cause I don′t need to know
What's coming 'round the bend
I′m gonna keep my shape (I′m gonna keep my shape)
No matter what shape I'm in (No, no, no, no, no)
And I keep on rolling by
Keep on riding high
Yeah, up and down and around and away we go
′Cause I don't need to know
What′s coming 'round the bend
I′m gonna keep my shape (I'm gonna keep my shape)
No matter what shape I'm in
I′m gonna keep my shape (I′m gonna keep my shape)
No matter what shape I'm in
I′m gonna keep my shape (Oh)
No matter what shape I'm in
