lyrics

The stones gathered by me for the fire / up in the forest
what keeps me on the road / why not spin the wheel
it's you that do, it's you that do this / bring hope to the hopeless one
It's you that do this, it's you that do this...

I can get lost in my mind / what keeps me from being so deprived
simply being with you...

because I know exactly when /
the streets were paved to Bethlehem /
and if you'll meet us round the bend /
eventually you'll see that lonley is in your head...

In the darkness / you can't find a home

I can get locked deep inside / it's not that I'm trying to hide
you patience is why I thank you

because I know exactly when /
the streets were paved to Bethlehem /
and if you'll meet us round the bend /
eventually you'll see that lonley is in your head...

In the darkness / you can't find a home
In the darkness / you can't find a home
