Good News From The Next World

My Life

by Simple Minds

on Good News From The Next World (1995)

I can feel it in the darkness
Getting closer in the night
Like a sacred song you linger on
You give me the wings of flight
And I love your sense of power
Every hour, every need
When the red light shows your arms enclose
Like the pillars of destiny

BRIDGE
With one step forward
I know I can leave this behind
Never look backward
I want to move through space, through time

I want to get to it
Seek and you'll find
Check the world, do it
It's my life
There's a star shines over you and I
It's my life
I'm just keeping my soul alive

There's talk of revolution
There's no solution to our plight
A red guitar can get you far
But you still know how to fight
They say all roads come together
Every shoulder to the wheel
Solid gold future unfolds
When you give me the hands that heal

BRIDGE

Help me get to it
Seek and you'll find
Check the world, do it
It's my life
There's a star shines over you and I
It's my life
And I'm keeping my soul alive

I'm looking out, and I call your name
I go running in a circle, but I can't get back again
And I'm calling out, I need you here
My whole life took a tumble, and I'm so filled up with fear
My life feels like a runaway train
I'm leading through a tunnel, and I can't get back again

And it's my life

It's my life
Looking through the moonlit night
Keeping my soul alive
Just keeping my soul alive
It's my life
Going, looking through the moonlit night
Keeping my soul alive
Just keeping my soul alive
It's my life

Keeping my soul alive
Just keeping my soul alive
Keeping my soul alive
Just keeping my soul alive
Keeping my soul alive
Just keeping my soul alive
