the tide is slow
he walks the shore
dreams and is singing
for the wicked a lullaby
in every moment giving
in every second living
just a heartbeat away
just a heartbeat away
in every word he's spoken
kept every vow unbroken
just a heartbeat away
just a heartbeat away
for the sleepless a lullaby
soothing voices
calling, awaken
teardrops, laughter
I'm blessed, forsaken
tie me, guide me
free me, encage me
sing me, softly,
lead me,
unfrighten
what I can't see
we follow the piper's dawning
a star in a cloudless morning
just a heartbeat away
just a heartbeat away
whenever we're p***e to give in
whenever we're far from living
a heartbeat's step each day
from the chosen path we stray
for the restless a lullaby
soothing voices
calling, awaken
teardrops, laughter
I'm blessed, forsaken
tie me, guide me
free me, encage me
sing me, softly,
lead me,
unfrighten
what I can't see
wastelands - we are scattered without a trace
we are stranded (we are stranded)
quicksand - slowly spiraling out of life
we're falling deep (we're feeling deep)
confined- we are wretched and all we seek
understanding (understanding)
we'll find - our heart is a promised land
awaiting us, awaiting us
soothing voices
calling, awaken
teardrops, laughter
I'm blessed, forsaken
tie me, guide me
free me, encage me
sing me, softly,
lead me,
unfrighten
what I can't see
