lyrics

If I cried me a river,
All the way to the sea.
Would the touch of it's waters,
Purify me.
I'm not all that I wanted,
Not as white as the snow.
But that's not what we asked for,
Didnt you know.

Well this is some journey,
One hell of a path
Heart to Heart,
While Hearts and souls last.
Did we ask for this journey,
Or to walk on this path.
Well maybe we did,
And we've got it right at last.

Sleep seems so easy,
When you can't stay awake
But what of dreams that have lingered,
After day break
Are they ones with a purpose,
Or a glimpse of what's true
Do they hold any answers,
For me and for you

These dreams hold such memories,
And give you many thoughts
That they take us into shadows,
Until we have been caught
And our pathways are plated,
And we've bound ourselves fast
But when we free ourselves swiftly,
We've got it right at last

So lets sing it out,
There no more we can do
We could rage out loud at spirit,
If we thought we might get through
But the powers arnt listening,
Not to the likes of you and me
They are far to busy laughing,
In their silent revery

So while I'm holding your hand,
Maybe we should split our sides too
In the end maybe a good laugh,
Is the best that we can do
Maybe some humour,
Will help us with our task
Maybe then we will find,
That we've got it right at last.
