CENTERED ON YOU
(words and music by Eilidh Patterson)

Days and nights go so fast
They’re rolling into one
The earth can’t stop revolving around the sun
And just like our little planet
There’s nothing I can do
But live out all my days
Centered on You

Life can get so busy
I forget to look Your way
And my head gets light and dizzy
Think I’m floating away
But gravity reminds me
I’m nothing without You
So I live out all my days
Centered on You

At times it feels I’m spinning round
Not going anywhere
And if I’d the chance to leave this path
I’d get to go somewhere
But then I feel the warmth of staying closer to the sun
And I wouldn’t give that up for anyone

From this little planet
I watch the stars at night
And I wonder what it feels like to shine so bright
Do they ever get lonely?
As I’m inclined to do
Either way I’ll never know but
I’ll keep centered on You

At times it feels I’m spinning round
Not going anywhere
And if I’d the chance to leave this path
I’d get to go somewhere
But then I feel the warmth of staying closer to the sun
And I wouldn’t give that up for anyone
No, I wouldn’t give that up for anyone
