[Refrain: Aleka Farha & Michael Semesky]
Keep it up

[Verse 1: Michael Semesky]
Oh the river, oh the river, it's running free
And oh the joy, oh the joy it brings to me
But I know it'll have to drown me
Before I can breathe easy

I've seen it in the flights of birds
I've seen it in you
The entrails of the animals
The blood running through
But in order to get to the heart
Sometimes I think I have to cut through
But you can't (but you can't)

[Refrain: Aleka Farha & Michael Semesky]
Keep it up, I know you can

[Chorus: Aleka Farha & Michael Semesky]
Just keep following the heartlines on your hand
Just keep following the heartlines on your hand
And keep it up, I know you can
Just keep following the heartlines on your hand
'Cause I am
[Verse 2: Aleka Farha]
An odyssey on odyssey and land over land
Creepin' and crawlin' like the sea over sand
Still I follow heartlines on your hand

And the fantasy, this fallacy, this tumblin' stone
Echoes of a city that's long overgrown
Your heart is the only place that I call home
And can I be returned? You can
We can

[Refrain: Aleka Farha & Michael Semesky]
I know you can

[Chorus: Aleka Farha & Michael Semesky]
Just keep following the heartlines on your hand
Just keep following the heartlines on your hand
And keep it up, I know you can
Just keep following the heartlines on your hand
'Cause I am

[Bridge: Michael Semesky]
What a thing to do, whoa
What a thing to choose
But know, in some way, I'm there with you
Up against the wall on a Wednesday afternoon
[Outro: Aleka Farha & Both]
Just keep following the heartlines on your hand
And keep it up, I know you can
Just keep following the heartlines on your hand
'Cause I am
