[Verse 1] You’ve got two small coins and a market-day grin One hand keeps the promise, one hand lets change in The tide pulls left, then the tide pulls right You make room for both and you sleep all night [Pre-Chorus] Don’t nail the water down Don’t ask the wheel to stay Just mind the turning moment And meet the moving day [Chorus] Keep it turning, keep it light Two worlds balanced in your sight When one falls low, the other rises You find your feet between the tides [Verse 2] A note from the landlord, a friend at the door A loaf in the basket, a little bit more You count what is steady, you count what can bend There’s skill in the sway, not a need to pretend [Pre-Chorus] Don’t nail the water down Don’t ask the wheel to stay Just mind the turning moment And meet the moving day [Chorus] Keep it turning, keep it light Two worlds balanced in your sight When one falls low, the other rises You find your feet between the tides [Instrumental Break: blues guitar solo and dubby keyboard phrases] [Bridge] The answer isn’t choosing Which road is yours to keep It’s learning how to carry both And still have room to breathe [Final Chorus] Keep it turning, keep it light Two worlds balanced in your sight When one falls low, the other rises You find your feet between the tides Keep it turning, let it roll Hold the many, guard your soul When one falls low, the other rises You find your feet between the tides [Outro] Two coins spinning, morning wide You keep your balance with the ride
