Keep Me from Blowing Away

I spent my whole lifetime
 In a world where the sunshine
 Found excuses for not hanging around
 I squandered emotions
 At the slightest of notions
 And the first easy loving I found
 But soon all the good times
 The gay times, the play times
 Like colors run together and fade
 Oh Lord, if you hear me, touch me and hold me
 And keep me from blowing away
 ♪
 There's times that I've trembled when my mind remembers
 All the days that just melted away
 With nothing to show
 These lines that I know
 Are beginning to show on my face
 Oh Lord, if you're listening, you know I'm no Christian
 And I ain't got much coming to me
 So send down some sunshine
 Throw out your lifeline
 And keep me from blowing away
 Oh Lord, if you hear me, touch me and hold me
 And keep me from blowing away
