Solid Ground

© A. Zoli & M. Hart 2019 (ASCAP)

When the storm settles
When the skies have finally cleared
And the worry you’ve been sleeping with
Fades and disappears

When the bow breaks
When the ship has sailed its course
And the troubles you’ve been running from
Can’t haunt you anymore

And when you’re ready to change direction
I hope your new heart can hold my affection

But it just aint my time
To make you mine
Gonna give in, gonna get lost for a while
But honey when the levee breaks
Don’t get swept away
Turn yourself around
Get to solid ground
For me

I’ll be waitin’ at the shore
For the tide to bring you in
With a beacon burning every night
Shining on my skin

And when you’re ready to change direction
I hope your new heart can hold my affection

But it just aint my time
To make you mine
Gonna give in, gonna get lost for a while
But honey when the levee breaks
Don’t get swept away
Turn yourself around
Get to solid ground
For me

Let the waves fall over
I will be your cover
Let it all wash away
I will remain
I will remain

But it just aint my time
To make you mine
Gonna give in, gonna get lost for a while
But honey when the levee breaks
Don’t get swept away
Turn yourself around
Get to solid ground
For me
