Bonnie Mckee - Marbles Steps lyrics

I climb the marble stairs that lead away Away from everything I used to know I try to keep my eyes down on the way The way my mother told me not to go Well all I ever wanted was A hand to hold me down To keep the sky from swallowing me up And all I ever needed was someone to come around And tell me that I've suffered long enough So take me away Find me a home I'm on my way I'm on my way I wonder when I'll see the stars again I thought that they had faded long ago With every step I'm closer to the end I'm climbing 'cause I don't know where to go Well all I ever wanted was A place to store my faith I thought that I could keep it locked away It burns my eyes to look at him And see the truth inside And so I turn my broken face away So take me away Find me a home I'm on my way I'm on my way I always dreamed of Sundays together with you Only your echoes can break my heart I need a hand to hold me, to keep me on land I fear I'm drifting too far apart Well all I ever wanted was A hand to hold me down To keep the sky from swallowing me up And all I ever needed was someone to come around And tell me that I've suffered long enough Oh, take me away Find me a home I'm on my way I'm on my way I'm on my way On my way I'm on my way And now I'm gone I'm gone I'm on my way
