Jumped In Anyway

from Beauty Everywhere by Deborah Crooks

lyrics

In the night you roll over
we meet in the middle
talk about harmonicas
maybe a fiddle
cat purrs, smile and giggle
go back to dreaming

And I remember the coast
the clouds coming in
we went out beyond the shore
we jumped in, we jumped in
hardly knowing what to do
we jumped in anyway

sometimes it's easy to say yes
even if your're not sure of the answer
let go of the shield be a romancer
matching smile to your grin
as you led me across the dance floor

How could I ask for more?
the crowd circling in
we danced out beyond the din
we jumped in, we jumped in
hardly knowing what to do
we jumped in anyway

and you trip and you fall
hope grace might answer your call
what was the name of that tune?
something about Johnny and June
won't you sing it for me now

I know it's dark outside
moon hovering over the water
you are somebody's son
I am somebody's daughter
children playing in the sand
building our castles

Somewhere on the coast
the clouds are coming in
we'll swim out beyond the shore
we'll jump in, we'll jump in
hardly knowing what to do
we jump in anyway
we jump in anyway
