Lyrics
COMFORT ZONE BLUES
Music and lyrics by Laura Derocher
Lord, I?ve been dreaming ?bout the great things I will do.
Oh, you know I?ve been dreaming ?bout the great things I will do.
But I?ve been sitting on my own tail, feeling miserably blue.
I?ve been addicted to safety, craving my comfort zone.
Addicted to safety, craving my comfort zone.
If I could have a little courage, Lord, I could make my life my own.
I get so scared of what might be,
I forget the strength that runs through me.
I?m giving up safety, leaving my comfort zone.
I?m gonna call on my courage now, time to make my life my own.
(HARMONICA SOLO)
Miss Dorothy met a lion, and he thought he was afraid.
But when it came to killing witches, man that lion was brave!
I?m giving up safety, leaving my comfort zone.
I?m giving up safety, leaving my comfort zone.
I?m calling on my courage, time to make my life my own.
I?m giving up safety, leaving my comfort zone.
(BACKUPS: She's leaving her comfort zone.)
Yeah, I?m giving up safety, leaving my comfortable little old worn out comfort zone.
(BACKUPS: She's leaving her comfort zone.)
I?m calling on my courage, gonna make my life my own.
