She sits him down in a stiff chair
Rubs his back and strapes his hair
Telling him it's ok to cry
But he just sits and stares
The merciless moon outside
Has nothing now he's come to realize
Only the desolation he feels
The cold distance inside
But you and I now, we can be alright
Just hold on to what we know is true
You and I now, 'though it's cold inside
Can feel the tide turning
While the priest just sits and weeps
Lamenting the fact that he can't see
Darkness and light and so much detail
Is given himself over
Refusing what he knows to be real
Turns away from every meal
Starving himself of goodness
He don't think he can heal
But you and I now, we can be alright
Just hold on to what we know is true
You and I now, 'though it's cold inside
Can feel the tide turning
What if I've lost all I had
Says the stranger to his dad
And the witness is confused
He can't tell what it's about
So he runs up to the nearest girl
And he comments on her glorious curls
Says darling come with me
I'll show you a whole new world
But you and I now, we can be alright
Just hold on to what we know is true
You and I now, 'though it's cold inside
Can feel the tide turning
Taken from AlbumSongAndLyrics.comYou and I now, we can be alright
Just hold on to what we know is true
You and I now, 'though it's cold inside
Can feel the tide turning
