For Keeps

Lily Kershaw

It could be nice Passing Bourbon over ice We could be free I got time for you, and you got time for me Look to the moon Before it’s gone out too soon And I look to you Before it gets, gets too hot in June

You let it out You let it out You let it out And take me away You let it out You let it out You let it out And take me away

I know you’re not for keeps Like pebbles on the beach And this life is not for free They’re banking on you and me

So you let it out You let it out You let it out And take me away I, you let it out You let it out You let it out And take me away

I know you’re not for keeps Like pebbles on the beach And this life is not for free They’re banking on you, and they’re banking on me

So you let it out You let it out You let it out And take me away I, you let it out You let it out You let it out And take me away

I wish it could be that simple I wish it could be that easy I wish you would come and keep me I wish you would come and keep me
