lyrics

It happened in the days and years before
That had left a muddy footprint on the floor
In those years I never doubted
Never thought that much about it
But I knew we'd never be the same no more

If I told you what a mess that I've become
How the days and nights have shattered into one
Would it send your heart a running?
Like a freight train hear it humming
Through the valley 'twards the ever setting sun

Oh my Lord
Oh my Lord
Why's my heart grown so cold?
Hold my hope
Hold my hope
Till the tide takes me home.

Well I'd lie to you and I'd enclose my heart
But it's not that I believe we've grown apart
Where a diamond and a dust storm
I've been blown around and I don't know
Where I landed or from where I did depart

I'm a feather floating through an open door
A broken bottle sinking to the ocean floor
I've been twisting for the sunlight
While my feet give in to frostbite
And I don't know what I feel like anymore

Oh my Lord
Oh my Lord
Why's my heart grown so cold?
Hold my hope
Hold my hope
Till the tide takes me home.

I'm looking for a wise man
To hear the winter in his breath
Hear stories in the silence
A sound I never can forget

Oh my Lord
Oh my Lord
Why's my heart grown so cold?
Hold my hope
Hold my hope
Till the tide takes me home.
