The Jason Jones Band - The Thief Lyrics

Another day
Of uncertainty
More than a life of survival
And my muscles burn
From the dirt I've turned
My body was dead on arrival
But I saved my soul
When I just let go
Of a future I don't know that keeps on robbing me
(Who you gonna make proud)
(Who you gonna let down)
(How's it gonna work out)

Then a month of rain
Snuffed out the flame
Killed my will for tryin'
Then another sheer
Blew away my tears
Shed for dogs and family dyin'
But I saved my soul
When I just let go
Of a future I don't know that keeps on robbing me
The future is a thief that keeps on robbing me
(Who you gonna make proud)
(Who you gonna let down)
(How's it gonna work out)
(Are you gonna stand proud)
(Are you gonna lay down)
(How's it gonna work out)

But I saved my soul
When I just let go
Of a future I don't know that keeps on robbing me
Yeah the future is a thief that keeps on robbing me

And I tried to run away (Run, run, away)
But I could never escape (Never escape)
Now I sit here and wait

On some good news
To take away these blues
And lift my spirit higher
Like an old friend
You get to see again
After your trial by fire

But I saved my soul
When I just let go
Of a future I don't know that keeps on robbing me
Yeah the future is a thief that keeps on robbing me
Yeah the future I don't know that keeps on robbing me
Yeah the future is a thief that keeps on robbing me
