| It lay buried here. |
| It lay deep inside me
|
| It’s so deep I don’t think that I can speak about it
|
| It could take me all of my life
|
| But it would only take a moment to
|
| Tell you what I’m feeling
|
| But I don’t know if I’m ready yet
|
| You come walking into this room
|
| Like you’re walking into my arms
|
| What would I do without you?
|
| Take away the love and the anger
|
| And a little piece of hope holding us together
|
| Looking for a moment that’ll never happen
|
| Living in the gap between past and future
|
| Take away the stone and the timber
|
| And a little piece of rope won’t hold it together
|
| If you can’t tell your sister
|
| If you can’t tell a priest
|
| 'Cause it’s so deep you don’t think that you can speak about it
|
| To anyone
|
| Can you tell it to your heart?
|
| Can you find it in your heart
|
| To let go of these feelings
|
| Like a bell to a Southerly wind?
|
| We could be like two strings beating
|
| Speaking in sympathy…
|
| What would we do without you?
|
| Two strings speak in sympathy
|
| Take away the love and the anger
|
| And a little piece of hope holding us together
|
| Looking for a moment that’ll never happen
|
| Living in the gap between past and future
|
| Take away the stone and the timber
|
| And a little piece of rope won’t hold it together
|
| We’re building a house of the future together
|
| (What would we do without you?)
|
| Well, if it’s so deep you don’t think that you can speak about it
|
| Just remember to reach out and touch the past and the future
|
| Well, if it’s so deep you don’t think you can speak about it
|
| Don’t ever think that you can’t change the past and the future
|
| You might not, not think so now
|
| But just you wait and see--someone will come to help you |
