When I was a boy I saw my daddy crying at the steering wheel And oh, it made me feel so scared Then there was joy Found my religion, swimming in a choir of voices And oh, I knew that I'd been spared That I'd be saved some sunny day Saved from throwing my life away That I'd be saved some sunny day From throwing my life, throwing my life away Keep singing, woah, I keep singing Praising to the heavens with my voice ringing Keep singing, woah, I keep singing Clap to the beat till my hands are stinging And I'd be saved some sunny day From throwing my life, throwing my life away And now I understand I'm a wide-eyed father, and blessed are the children Oh, our greatest reward And with these hands I'll move a mountain, build a castle to keep you safe Of this you know you can be sure And you'll be saved some sunny day Saved from throwing your life away And you'll be saved some sunny day From throwing your life Keep singing, woah, keep singing Praising to the heavens with your voices ringing Keep singing, woah, keep singing Clap to the beat til your hands are stinging And you'll be saved some sunny day From throwing your life, throwing your life away Who do you love? When it all comes down to truth Who do you love? When it all comes back to you Who do you love? When you're lying in your bed Who do you love? Who do you love? Keep singing, woah, keep singing Pray, keep singing, woah, keep singing Pray, keep singing, woah, keep singing Pray, keep singing, woah, keep singing And you'll be saved some sunny day Saved from throwing your life away And you'll be saved some sunny day From throwing your life, throwing your life away Keep singing, woah, keep singing Praising to the heavens with your voices ringing Keep singing, woah, keep singing Clap to the beat til your hands are stinging And you'll be saved some sunny day From throwing your life, throwing your life away
