Something to Keep on Going

I met her in church while attending a burial
My father had died and I was relieved
Yes, our relationship was kind of adversarial
I always felt misperceived and much aggrieved

My emotional balance below limit and full of hate
Fighting for decency and respect
I was so insecure about the future and my fate
The state of my mind I had to disinfect

She gave me a glimpse into a lost world of sincerity
An image of hope and prosperity

Gimme something to keep on going
Just a grey light at the end of the night
Tell me that our love will be growing
And everything will turn out to be all right

They say women want to see a man in a tied up situation
To control him by leading him into temptation
But don't rob me from the credit of my small achievements
I'm just starting to get over my bereavements

So I place myself at your mercy
To chase away the scarecrows in my head
I know it sounds kind of perversely
But don't make me take steps I would regret

Gimme something to keep on going
Just a grey light at the end of the night
Tell me that our love will be growing
And everything will turn out to be all right
