I have walked these city streets alone

I found no comfort out here on my own

My feet get tired and my knees get weak

There's no one left to carry me

When there's no way in

And no way out

You'll hear me say



Keep my head on my pillow

When the walls all fall down

Save my tears for tomorrow

And keep my feet on the ground

Keep my hands off the wheel

When it's out of my control

And keep my eye on that sparrow

'Cause he knows the way home



The words you speak fall right off your tongue

They break my bones and the future comes undone

Between where you go and where I stand

Blows a hot angry wind

And I'm fading fast

'Cause I know we won't pass

This way Again



Keep my head on my pillow

When the walls all fall down

Save my tears for tomorrow

And keep my feet on the ground

Keep my hands off the wheel

When it's out of my control

And keep my eye on that sparrow

'Cause he knows the way home



Well maybe I'm weak

Maybe I think too much

But I know God and His angels

Are watching over us.



Keep my head on my pillow

When the walls all fall down

Save my tears for tomorrow

And keep my feet on the ground

Keep my hands off the wheel

When it's out of my control

And keep my eye on that sparrow

'Cause he knows the way home
