Bruce Hornsby - Set Me In Motion Lyrics

Sit there with a blank expression
Say you can't go on anymore
It's not like me to come out and help you
Maybe I've been down this road before

Been living in the shadows, now you come out slow
Now you're in the saddle, got to ride a long
Now you're dream was shattered, these days are through
Maybe something mattered, it's not just for you

Some are gonna go for broke, some are gonna lay down
I've been too long standing still
All I know is whenever you need me
You reach out and set me in motion

Looking out on that long valley
And telling me I've come so far
You're the reason I finally got there
You're the reason it's been so hard

Been living in the shadows, now you hear the call
Now you're in the saddle, you got to ride or fall
Now you push a little harder like I showed you to
There's a day you'll be calling and I'll look to you, you

Some are gonna go for broke, some will lay down
I've been too long standing still
All I know is whenever you need me
You reach out and set me in motion

Some are gonna go for broke, some will lay down
I've been too long standing still
All I know is whenever you need me
You reach out and set me in motion

Some are gonna go for broke, some will lay down
I've been too long standing still
I'll pick you up whenever you stumble
You reach out and set me in motion

Hey hey hey oh oh oh
I've been too long standing still
I'll pick you up whenever you stumble
