You're in my book of answered prayers
No need to change your heart's direction
At every crossroad, I'll be there

Through endless nights and life's confusion
Just simply sound your heart's alarm
I guarantee you'll find compassion
Right here within these open arms

There will be nights, some restless nights
When you're alone, your thoughts start to wander
Wonderin' if it's right, you search the night
Baby, you're home, why look any farther?

Keep it right here, keep it right here, your sweet love
Keep it right here, keep it right here, your sweet love

You've been the love that I can count on
The only one who truly cared
Deep in your eyes, I found my fortune
I treasure every night we've shared

There will be nights, some restless nights
When you're alone, your thoughts start to wander
Wonderin' if it's right, you search the night
Baby, come home, why look any farther?

Keep it right here, keep it right here, your sweet love
Keep it right here, keep it right here

When you're lost and lonely, nowhere to turn
Call out my name, there's no need to face it alone
You know the answer deep in your heart
Don't doubt what we've got 'cause baby, you're home

You are the love without exception
You're in my book of answered prayers
No need to change your heart's direction
At every crossroad, I'll be there

Keep it right here, keep it right here, your sweet love
Keep it right here, keep it right here, your sweet love
Keep it right here, keep it right here, your sweet love
Keep it right here, keep it right here, your sweet love

You're in my book of answered prayers
No need to change your heart's direction
