Lyrics

Balance (Don?t You Worry About Me)
words & music by R. Hunt Sidway

Don?t you worry about me
I?ve got my balance back
Just stood up too fast
Next thing I knew I was flat on my back

Refrain a:
But now I?ve got my bearings
I?m changing things around
Don?t want to fall again
So I?ve planted both my feet, firmly on the ground


You?ve got to get up slow
When you?ve had a fall like mine
Life can lay you low
To stand up tall you?ve got to take your time

?Pride goes before a fall?
Sure was true for me
Thought I could do it all
In my mind a saint, but in my heart a demon seed

repeat refrain a

Refrain b:
Gonna walk before I run
Crawl before I walk
Learn from all these scars
And plant my feet squarely on the Rock


You were there to pick me up
When I was down and out
Bruised and torn and left for dead
When I cried for help, there was no one else about


Refrain c:
But you reached out and saved me
And helped me to my feet
Is it any wonder
That I?m here with you, humbly on my knees


So don?t you worry about me
I?ve got my balance back
Yes I?ve got my balance back
