Floorboards (Poetic Lyrics)
Mark Catalano
v1
Comin out from under,
Somethin, or other
Safe, warm, or smothered
I lost my way
v2
Lookin up through floorboards
Rentin’ space like landlords
Holdin’ out for re-wards
What? I can’t say
Chorus:
There’s a light that’s shining in
That paints my face
And people walkin by
But they don’t know
Underneath their feet
Hides a sinner
Gatherin’ up their crumbs that fall like snow
v3
Met you on the sideline
Head full of cheap wine
Life stuck on rewind
Is there, any other way
v4
Always on some rebound
A new queen to be crowned
Chasin love that breaks me down
Wishin you would stay
Coda:
Thought you were looking for
Your shining knight
To come sweep you off your feet and make you whole
But I’ll never be the one to fix your heart
I keep using yours to try and fix my own
Chorus:
There’s a light that’s shining in
That paints my face
And people walkin by
But they don’t know
Underneath their feet
Hides a sinner
Gatherin’ up their crumbs that fall like snow
