Pick Me Up

Don’t you know I’ve often wondered
About your state of expectation
I’ve wandered through the lands and through the halls of many nations
When the beating of the drum
Echoes louder than the cannon
And the voices heard on high
Can turn the bullets, raise the banner
I said oh, oh, oh, oh
You are not alone
When you’re standing all alone and hear the beating of your heart
In a world that’s dead and gone you still wonder where you are
Well the stars they shine above you
And the moon is on the rise
These break ups leave you empty
Can’t keep the water from your eyes
I said oh, oh, oh, oh
You are not alone
I’m just standing on the corner
Waiting for a pick me up
I’m just hanging on your doorstep
Hoping that you might come through
And I’m still waiting on a call from you
I just won’t get
Oh, oh, oh, it says
You are not alone
In the quiet desolation of a country gravel road
In the cool exhilaration of a deep dark swimming hole
When the air it seems stiller than the desert in July
And you look at someone’s soul as you stare deep into their eyes
I say oh, oh, oh, oh
You are not alone
Oh, oh, oh
We have just begun
Oh, oh, oh
We have finally won
I’m just standing on the corner
Waiting for a pick me up
I’m just hanging on your doorstep
Hoping that you might come through
And I’m still waiting on a call from you
I just won’t get
Oh, oh, oh, it says
You are not alone
I wait, I wait, I wait, I’m waiting
You are not alone
I pray, I pray, I pray, I’m praying
You are not alone
I wait, I wait, I wait, I’m waiting
You are not alone
I pray, I pray, I pray, I’m praying
You are not alone
