Chris Smither – Footloose lyrics

I've lost my shoes, but I don't feel like walking
If you find them and they fit, they're yours for free
I lost my voice from talking
Had no more to say, just walked away
If you find it, just amuse it
Every time I try to use it
All it does is sing a simple song for me
Tongue-tied and turned around
Footloose with your feet stuck in the ground
Tongue-tied and turned around
Footloose with your feet stuck in the ground

I know my name and now I know it ain't no secret
If you know it I will claim I'm not to blame
I'd be mad to seek it
Seemed to grow some wings and sail away
I for one have seen it fly
And it never screams, it only sighs
It makes me cry each time I hear the sound
Oh, tongue-tied and turned around
Footloose with your feet stuck in the ground
Oh, tongue-tied and turned around
Footloose with your feet stuck in the ground

Oh. tongue-tied and turned around
Footloose with your feet stuck in the ground
Oh. tongue-tied and turned around
Footloose with your feet stuck in the ground

A sinking sun and rising sun are most amazing
When the difference doesn't matter much to you
Just blazing cloud horizons
Going in and out from red to mainly blue
And this confusion ain't for nothing
It's what you get for something
That you could have done but never seemed to do
Because you're tongue-tied and turned around
Footloose with your feet stuck in the ground
Tongue-tied and turned around
Footloose with your feet stuck in the ground

I've lost my shoes, but I don't feel like walking
