lyrics

My dark-eyed friend you're spending so much time to get it right
You see a man of faith I see someone trying to add a meaning to his life
Hear the constant voice drowning in the noise of an angry crowd
Don't confuse the truth with a blind old man who's just talking loud

No running away, living life like a refugee
I believe you'll remember the way
'Cause you'll find that you're suddenly not alone
Not so far from home
There's a place to go
Even in the great unknown

Rewind to simpler times if onward's not your strongest hand
Realize that endless tides will wash away all the little fortresses of sand
And when you think it's done, you start re-telling a story you thought you knew
Love's like speaking a new tongue that's not native to either one of you
