Lyrics

SOLID GROUND

Broken hands
On a beat up clock
Where a young boy stands
On a moonlit dock
Waves crash below
As the ship’s lights fade
Bon fires glow
To a shoreline serenade

CHORUS:
And now I stand here today
Amazed at what I’ve found
After years of stumblin’
I’ve finally found
A small patch of
SOLID GROUND

Broken chain
On my beat up bike
I walked through the rain
Almost child like
And I followed a trail
To where dark waters flowed
Retraced my steps to make
My way back to the road

CHORUS:
And now I stand here today
Amazed at what I’ve found
After years of stumblin’
I’ve finally found
A small patch of
SOLID GROUND

BRIDGE:
I stumbled along those river banks
I fell in and I nearly drowned
But I’m alive and well and I’m givin’ thanks
For all the goodness I have found

Broken chain
On my beat up bike
I walked through the rain
Almost child like
And I followed a trail
To where dark waters swirled
Retraced my steps
to find my place in this world

CHORUS:
And now I stand here today
Amazed at what I’ve found
After years of stumblin’
I’ve finally found
A small patch of
SOLID GROUND
