I´d never known her to cry
But this time is different for sure
She´s shaking with tears in her eyes
As she picks up what´s left of the night
The hope for a reason seemed pure

As we leave what´s left on the wall

But oh, how it´s taken its toll
Oh, how it´s taken its toll
Everything´s taken its toll
Everything´s taken its toll

There was more than a break in the smiles
They rose and slowly they tired
As she turned the moments were made
There were none that could prove where she lay
There´s a calm in the stories now told
And the distance will always be home

And oh, how it´s taken its toll
Oh, how it´s taken its toll
Everything´s taken its toll
Everything´s taken its toll

Everything´s taken its toll
It´s a moment we carry alone
With a cause there´s a cure for the soul
But oh, how it´s taken its toll
Oh, how it´s taken its toll
