Paul Weller Lyrics

HE'S THE KEEPER Lyrics

He's the keeper

 Of the Lantern

 Stone Believer-

 It's a Passion,

 And he knows it

 He's the keeper

 Hanging wishes

 -up upon our stars

 As he waits for love

 Yes he waits for love.

Flying without a hand

 Trying to brave the land

 Something about the man

 -is about to make a stand!

 With nothing but liars and thieves

 Trying to purchase thee,

 Where are you meant to go

 -But fly away - high away.

He's the one knight

 On a knackered Stallion 

 His rusty armour-

 So Undervalued, 

 Does he know that 

 He's a reason,

 He's asleep now

 But never gone, 

 As he waits for love, 

 Yes he waits for love-

 Hanging without a cloud

 Hopeing to draw a crowd 

 If he's willing to take a chance-

 -come on people make a stance ! 

 From tiny acorns grow- 

 All kinds of seekers, 

 And where are they meant go-

 But fly away - High away

In the maelstran of indecision

 Shine ! Believer! 

 find the season 

 He helped to grow it- 

 -He's the keeper 

 Hanging wishes- 

 -up upon our stars 

 As he waits for love 

 Yes we wait for love

He's the keeper 

Of the Lantern 

He's the message 

in the midnight- 

of your madness, 

In the backlog of conversations 

We never had- 

We wait for love 

Yes we wait for love.
