Devotion - Paul Weller

Devotion is the key

to the lock that holds your dreams

sending whispers from afar

as these ways to find your heart

now you things you never said

you must now say them all

Devotion gets you up

on those mornings in the dark

when you fumble for the light

asking whats should day be like

it answers with a call

as devotion leads you on

There you go

with your head full of ideas

it shows

there’s a purpose in your feet

Let it fall down in a crawl

let it part don’t leave the course

Stay!

in these loving arms

Devotion fills the room

takes the things we love too soon

pieces empty at a time

til we see the sun shall rise

and now after we have gone

as devotion carries on

Devotion sets you free

stops you spinning in the street

ties you gently to a tree

comesback for you at dawn

picks you up and makes you strong

as devotion leads you on

And you know

that you better get it right

it shows

there’s a purpose day and night

Don’t let it go down in a crawl

let it fall don’t leave the course

Stay!

In these loving arms
