about

lyrics

My poor head is aching, and my fear I can’t hide
The way things are going, how can I abide?
My true love was taken, by a swift beam of light
While I fitfully slept, it happened overnight

Got me feeling so sad and lonesome, it’s hard to be kind

Now she’s light-years away and enjoying the sights
While I’m planted in the earth, wishin the sun would shine bright
You went down to the station and bought a ticket to ride
But me, I’d no money, and no spirit of flight

Like a fire that burns, consuming it’s right
How all came about, too, too quickly
Though so badly it hurts, of course it’s your right,
It’s just you’ve cracked my shell completely

I took comfort in the arms of strangers who held me, as I wept like a child

The easiest way is to listen to your soul
Do what your own sweet heart does tell you
