Caravan - Keepin' Up de Fences lyrics

Standing in the hall waiting for a call, trying to keep a smile on my face Fell out of a dream that nearly had me screaming at night all over the place And I was calling everywhere, but I can get no answer There isn't anybody here, there's no answer Then out in the night, tried to get back, couldn't get it out of my head Everywhere it seemed, was followed by a dream and a voice that was clearly said "You won't escape from me tonight, you know we've got your number You are the next in line my friend, got your number" Gotta to stay awake tonight boy Gotta find a way to fight back Gotta keep a line of decencies Gotta keep up my defences Gotta be a song, a face by the dawn, it seemed to be calling me How'd it started goin' he said that he could show me a way that I could shake it free Didn't have a voice, didn't have a choice, and my head felt like dynamite Anymore but now it felt like my blow to a thousand pieces in the night Oh, gotta help me now, I need find the answer There isn't anybody here, there's no answer Oh, gotta help me now, keep a line of decencies If you will only keep up my defences
