i'm keeping you i'm keeping you
i'm keeping you so realize your fate
i'm keeping you i'm keeping you
i'm keeping you so settle down now
you landed here from inner space
you landed with that screwed-up look on your face
i wanted you from way back when
i wanted you for years, then years again
i'm keeping you i'm keeping you
i'm keeping you so settle in now
my return to wildlife by satellite
by beautiful moon-shining girl
whether by hard ground or splashdown
we're safely back in the world
my heart's not new
i'm not like you
i've loved and been loved well and badly too
my body's been through everything
i've used and been used
i got over it
there's something that you learn on a tightrope
just outside the spotlight there's a big net waiting for...
my return to wildlife by satellite
by beautiful moon-shining girl
whether by hard ground or splashdown
we're safely back in the world
i'm keeping you
keeping you ~ tanya donelly

FINE!!!
(tee hee)
the song is so beautiful...the lyrics.
she wrote it for her daughter, when she was born, but it translates to other versions of love in life, too; don't you think?
yes it's beautiful and I took it to heart. A bit of playfulness.
Aww, how sweet ... 'moon-bright girl'. How did I miss this album? It's on 4AD, for crying out loud!
the whole album is amazing, dale. i love tanya, though...have loved pretty much everything she's been involved in (throwing muses, belly, her duet with catherine wheel, solo work).
i need to get a copy of the whole album...yet again another lost to my chicago days.

Another quest! To the battle station! (um, that means the PC with bittorrent and such) P-)
