Much to everyone's surprise

People say I'm getting dirty

But I would rather kiss the soil

Than be crippled by disguise

Better down to earth than pretty



In the ash I see passion

In the dust I see trust

I will turn this ship around

And if everything crashes

I will burn if I must

I will turn this ship around



I've been swimming in your sky

Waiting for the tide to turn

To something beautiful and true

And you've been swallowing my life

From a distance you have earned

Every right to know I feel you.



In the ash I see passion

In the dust I see trust

I will turn this ship around

Do you think I'm old fashioned

‘Cause I miss you this much

I will turn this ship around



I've been buried in the sand

Waiting for the sun to beat

Down upon my back like lava

And I've been hoping for your hands

To caress my soul to sleep

Fill me up with your kabbalah



In the ash I see passion

In the dust I see trust

I will turn this ship around

And if everything crashes

I will burn if I must

I will turn this ship around
