Bob Ludwig - By and Down lyrics

Moving in and out of the shadow It's no easy mission Holding on to how I picture you Showing only bits and pieces 'Til the tide betrays you And your empty allocution Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace of humility Searching your eyes for the saint is an act of futility Searching your eyes for a hint or trace of it Searching your eyes for humility Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace I'm still searching, searching Showing only bits and pieces 'Til the light betrays you And your empty allocution Rode the piper by and down the river Carca** crippled underneath The pounding waves of adoration Pied Piper float on down the river Bloated carca** crippled me The weight of adoration Moving in and out of the shadow It's no easy mission Holding on to how I picture you
