Lyrics & Translation
[English]
[FILM REEL FLICKERS]
[♪♪♪]
♪ You heard my voice ♪
♪ I came out of the woods by choice ♪
♪ Shelter also gave their shade ♪
♪ But in the dark, I have no name ♪
♪ So leave that click in my head ♪
♪ And I will remember the words that you said ♪
♪ Left a clouded mind and a heavy heart ♪
♪ But I was sure we could see a new start ♪
♪ So when your hope's on fire ♪
♪ But you know your desire ♪
♪ Don't hold a glass over the flame ♪
♪ Don't let your heart grow cold ♪
♪ I will call you by name ♪
♪ I will share your road ♪
♪ But hold me fast, hold me fast ♪
♪ 'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer ♪
♪ And hold me fast, hold me fast ♪
♪ 'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer ♪
♪ I wrestled long with my youth ♪
♪ We tried so hard to live in the truth ♪
♪ But do not tell me all is fine ♪
♪ When I lose my head, I lose my spine ♪
♪ So leave that click in my head ♪
♪ And I won't remember the words that you said ♪
♪ You brought me out from the cold ♪
♪ Now, how I long, how I long to grow old ♪
♪ So when your hope's on fire ♪
♪ But you know your desire ♪
♪ Don't hold a glass over the flame ♪
♪ Don't let your heart grow cold ♪
♪ I will call you by name ♪
♪ I will share your road ♪
[♪♪♪]
♪ But hold me fast, hold me fast ♪
♪ 'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer ♪
♪ And hold me fast, hold me fast ♪
♪ 'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer ♪
♪ And I will learn ♪
♪ I will learn to love the skies I'm under ♪
♪ And I will learn ♪
♪ I will learn to love the skies I'm under ♪
♪ The skies I'm under ♪
