lyrics

You hold in your hand what I have always wanted
You hang it from a branch that is just out of my reach
There’s a thinning of my skin and a cracking of the bones
As I stretch my arms and fingers out as far as they will go
A little pain but not so that I notice, so strong is this desire
I watch you study my face as you raise it one inch higher, higher

Oh you know how to keep me running for you
How to keep me running
Oh, you know that nothing drives me crazy
Like the promise of maybe

I’ve never been a dancer but you made it look so easy
Take direction from the pressure of your hand upon my back
I stay bended at the knees and lifted through the toes
Figure out the steps but only when the song is slow
You pull me in to spin me out release me with a whisper in my ear
‘Don’t stop when you get dizzy that’s a sign you’re almost there’

Oh you know how to keep me running for you
How to keep me running
Oh, you know that nothing drives me crazy
Like the promise of maybe

So I’m pushing off a little harder
Throwing my body a little farther
eyes fixed on the finish line you’ve drawn for me
that’s gone the second I am standing where it ought to be

Oh you know how to keep me running for you
How to keep me running
Oh, you know that nothing drives me crazy
Like the promise of maybe
