Lyrics Paul Weller

Paul Weller

He's the Keeper

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

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?

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

He just waits for love

Yes, he waits for love

Yes, he waits for love

(He's the keeper)

Hanging without a cloud

Hoping 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 maelstrom of indecision

Shine believer find the season

He helped to grow it, he's the keeper

Hanging wishes up upon our stars

He waits for love

Yes, he 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

Yes, you wait for love
