Dixon Robin – Floodgates lyrics

Hey there Elena is the weather good?
Back home where I'd be if I could
Is the spring still sunny?
Is the summer still hot?
Is the winter still snowy like the mountaintops?

How's your sister doing? Everything okay?
How've you been feeling since I moved away?
Do you think about me sometimes? If not that's fine
But I'd like you to know that you're on my mind

Keep your head up, keep looking ahead
Your demons may haunt you so think of me instead
I know, deep down, you're a tough old girl
So show me a smile and give me a twirl
Don't let your worries hold you to the ground

The sunset at dusk made me think a while
The things I am and the things I'm not
But maybe if I play my cards just right
I can play this song to you one summer night

There's a flood down south and fires out west
I'm so damn tired, could you let me rest?
You can tell me stories from our days long gone
And maybe you can tell me where I went wrong

Keep your head up, keep looking ahead
Your demons may haunt you so think of me instead
I know, deep down, you're a tough old girl
So show me a smile and give me a twirl
Don't let your worries hold you to the ground

Oh, life moves on at a breakneck pace
Way too fast to keep the chase
So hold your arms out to the wind and rain
And let the sun shine down on me
And, oh, my future bride to be
Let the dew drops sit on the window pane
And if the floodgates open up
And all my friends have had enough
Tell me, baby, will you fight it out?
Cause maybe if the stars align
The Lord above will send the sign
That you, my dear, have gone the way around

La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la

Don't let your worries hold you to the ground (x4)
