When the sun welcomes us in
And the earth´s protective skin
Fails and peels back, face to chin
Then we start it all again

Why do you frown?
Why do you try?
Why don´t you lie down
In the light?

Who´s gonna hold my heart
Who´s gonna be my own own own?
Who´s gonna know when all is dark
That she is not alone?

Heed this word: beware
For my heart´s ways are unclear
A fundamental prayer
Leaves the evil one stripped bare

Why do you frown?
Why do you try?
Why don´t you lie down

In the light?

Who´s gonna hold my heart
Who´s gonna be my own own own?
Who´s gonna know when all is dark
That she is not alone?

Everybody says that it´s all right to be there
Everybody says that it´s all right to show
Time and again one of us falls behind
It´s as if we tried to know what
We can´t really know
