Lyrics

STEADY RHYTHM OF TIME

Morning come streaming
Through Venetian blinds
Comes to rest on the bedspread
In zebra lines

She?s lying beside me
I can hear the church bells starting to chime

Dresser clock is ticking
Ticking out the steady rhythm of time


I think about what year this is
Moving way too fast
Almost miss my exit
Stop and get some gas

I go to pay at the counter
There?re a couple of strangers waiting in line
Car stereo?s blaring
Pumping out the steady rhythm of time


Bridge:
There?s a beat on this street that is measured
In lives like a melody never heard


Not sure where I?m headed
Barely know where I?ve been
I wonder what this is all about
Is that a sin?

I?m not afraid of the questions
I?m afraid of the answers I might find
Everyday keeps slipping
Slipping at the steady rhythm of time


Shadows grow longer
I grow weary
Put my head on my pillow
She lies there near me

Moonlight is flowing
Like a river through Venetian blinds
I can feel her heart beating
Beating out the steady rhythm of time
