Feeling better now that I understand just what you require,
And I know that I'll win, 'cause I can,
Knowing that you set the standard for me.
All in all, it's really not what I had expected to see,
Lately though, I've been a learning that it's only just between you and me,
And what's all this talk about a ball and a chain?
Can't you see all the freedom I've gained?
Cover me.
I've got to give all the good that I can get out of me,
I know the bad gives me trouble, but I shows me I need,
A little help just to lead me along, pick me up, shake my dust and move on,
Cover me, yeah.
Real as it is, it doesn't means it's easy to believe what I see,
Now and again, you know I'd like for you to tell me that things are okay,
Wish it was as easy as a phone call away, 'cause I could use some advice here today,
Cover me.
I've got to give all the good that I can get out of me,
I know the bad gives me trouble, but I shows me I need,
A little help just to lead me along, pick me up, shake my dust and move on,
Cover me, yeah.
Feeling better now that I understand,
You said that everything matters,
Just remember those prints in the sand, and the end will justify these means.
I've got to give all the good that I can get out of me,
I know the bad gives me trouble, but I shows me I need...
A little help just to lead me along, pick me up, shake my dust and move on,
Cover me,
I've got to give all the good that I can get out of me,
A little help just to lead me along, pick me up, shake my dust and move on,
Cover me, yeah.
