Robert Ellis Steady As The Rising Sun Lyrics

I won't take much of your time
I just need someone to talk to that's kind
You know all my darker shades
You know everything I keep hidden away

And whenever it seems as if nothing is going my way
You will call and it seems like you always know just what to say
And whenever it seems as if something's gone terribly wrong
There is some kind of power in the sound of your voice and it keeps me strong

You are steady as the rising sun
But, like the moon, you keep on shining long after the day is done
It seems impossible to think somehow
That there is a love that won't ever let me down
And honey, I hope your love won't let me down

Life can drag you through the dirt
And a man can't always tell you exactly where it hurts
But you've touched my un-healing heart
By making known your very own until I can't tell us apart

And if a storm or a gale ever capsize the sails, let these words resound
You're the finest of sailing companions a sailor has ever found
When I lose or I win, when the audience thins, you have stuck around
Oh, I may die in the fight but with you at my side that won't get me down

You are steady as the rising sun
But, like the moon, you keep on shining long after the day is done
It seems impossible to think somehow
That there is a love that won't ever let me down
And honey, I hope your love won't let me down
