Too Much Joy - Robin Trower

You can’t keep standing

Deep underground

Each hand is turning — turning round

You can’t keep hiding

Head split in two

Your face is sliding

From view

Stood waiting for the shadow’s voice to call

Time wasted — just too much joy, that’s all

Lost in the shuffle

One father to few

Learned how to hustle — too soon

You can’t keep running

Who’s chasing who

The past keeps coming back for you

Though darkness can take the pain away

No darkness can change what the angels say

Though darkness can take the pain away

No darkness can change what the angels say

Stood waiting for the shadow’s voice to call

Time wasted — just too much joy, that’s all
