From hand to hand you bought and sold,

Blood is the shield against the weather,

Became a stone for fear of being melted,

Troubled from the day we came together.



When you recover, from yesterdays low,

True slave to traction of pleasure,

I collect the embers as I watch you grow,

You left along the way we came together.



As you breathe, as you breathe into life

You will lead, you will lead,

As you stray, as you stray far from home,

I will believe, I will believe.



Flames of love immerse you,

Cradle and coerce you,

Shadows over on the place you play,

Names of love we mind along the way,

Seem shallowed by the way we came together.



My heart carries on,

But my head knows better,

Troubled by the way we came together.



As you breathe, as you breathe into life

You will lead, you will lead,

As you stray, as you stray far from home,

I will believe, I will believe.



'Cause you are here today, and gone tomorrow,

Basking in the fields of never never,

You wanted today, oh but I wanted forever,

Troubled by the way we came together.



My heart carries on,

But my head knows better,

Troubled by the way we came together.



As you breathe, as you breathe into life

You will lead, you will lead,

As you stray, as you stray far from home,

I will believe, I will believe.



'Cause you are here today,

And gone tomorrow...
