lyrics

Hannah, peace is what you need
And time to think that helps you feel yourself
Lately you've been talking in your sleep
Rumours of a life more ordinary

Thursday, a day not often heard
In titles, songs and words, but here
Blurring, the weeks roll into months
The months blend into years. The fear...

Talking and talking but never believing
that there will be healing must break
your sorrowful heart that all came apart
and still hasn't forgotten that day.
If there was anything I could say
know that I'd willingly take all your pain
Faith is assurance of things we've not seen
but I'm sure you'll see sunshine again.

(Your smile has a way that makes me want to change,
Your voice moves my soul in ways unexplained.
Your eyes see inside me to every small corner,
You knew me and loved me before I was born.)

Standing on ledges and dreaming of flying
there's nothing but concrete below.
Put away edges and put away doubts
and take hold of the truth that you know.
'It's one of those days where the
world would be better if I didn't even exist.'
Your eloquent phrases and false self-appraisals -
It doesn't get better than this.

(Waking and sleeping, I trust you are with me,
Behind and before me, a guide and a lamp to me
Words that bring comfort, your life sets me free.
You are the lover who sings over me.)

You are the lover who sings over me
You are the lover who sings over me
You are the lover who sings over me
You are the lover who sings over me
