We see a mother with no child
We meet a stranger, poor exiled
How's the heart while it still beats?
Asks a no-one, another John Doe
Sorrow hides well in your shell
A fellow man with hurt to spare
Dear one, here I am to share the fear
An act of kindness without an amen
How's the heart underneath the silence?
How's the one drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean, come in the fire's warm
Burn the rope and dance some more
We met where the cliff greets the sea
Shared a story, took the leap
Rose up rooted, hit a note
You know where, you've been there
Now there's one who came from me
A child of light, another tale
Dear one, night will come but not to stay
Oh why, the answer's in the
How's the heart underneath the silence?
How's the one drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean, come in the fire's warm
Burn the rope and dance some more
Fair winds, my love, fly towards the calm
Fly utterly in lost towards a beating heart
A beating heart
How's the heart underneath the silence?
How's the one drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean, come on in, the fire's warm
[2x]
How's the heart underneath the silence?
How's the one drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean, come on in
How's the heart underneath the silence?
How's the one drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean, come on in, the fire's warm
Dull the blade and dance some more
How's the heart
How's the one drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean, come on in, the fire's warm
Dull the blade and dance some more
How's the heart underneath the silence?
How's the one drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean, come in the fire's warm
Burn the rope and dance some more
