From the recording Keeping Time
Lyrics
The first thing I remember it was evening
A crowd of people held each other tight
I was sitting next to you behind your piano
Singing through the night
And I still hear you talking like an angel
Sometimes it's been all that I could find
And maybe it's your voice that I remember
That keeps me keeping time
And ain't that life
Oo oo oo oo
Keeping time
I was sitting on the steps to my apartment
Playing my guitar on Friday night
I was singing to the echo of the stairwell
Just trying to get it right
And ain't that life
Oo oo oo oo
Keeping time
And ain't that life
Oo oo oo oo
Keeping time
Keeping time
Oo oo oo
Keeping time
Oo oo oo
All those days and all those nights
Keeping time
Oo oo oo
Keeping time
Oo oo oo
All those days and all those nights
All that I have left is that old piano
Your voice is just a memory I find
All alone and drifting through the evening
Always keeping time
And ain't that life
Oo oo oo oo
Keeping time
And ain't that life
Oo oo oo oo
Keeping time
And ain't that life
Oo oo oo oo
Keeping time
And ain't that life
Oo oo oo oo
Keeping time
