Dee Carstensen - Holding Back An Ocean songtekst
Je score:
I believe I'm holding back an ocean All the world depends on only this If I allow just one more tear to spill The earth will drown in sadness I behold the beauty and the madness The combination takes me by surprise Like loving you and losing you in one lifetime The tears that make you wise And how I feel the weight on me I need to set it down For in the gush of overflow Our hearts will surely drown Must I hide from the mouths of hunger Turn away from the asking hand Shut my ears to heaven's thunder Still my heart to the woe of man I should be fearful of what lies beneath me My vision and my touch disguise it's depth But when this sea of madness overcomes us Our hearts will be at rest And how I feel the weight on me I need to set it down Must I forever guard the gate And see it's chains stay bound Must I hide from the mouths of hunger Turn away from the asking hand Shut my ears to heaven's thunder Still my heart to the woe of man Must I run from the shouts of anger Play the fool to the preachers hope Wipe away all I can remember Still my heart to the hangmans rope I'm holding back, I'm holding back, I'm holding back an ocean I'm holding back, I'm holding back, I'm holding back an ocean
