lyrics

Like the long hard winter
that whips at our backs
rolling across the country and blowing through the cracks
we can get through the nights
if we think of the past
when we lived through some turmoil
but it always did pass

the sounds of the city are weighing on me
honking horns and shouting in the streets
there's nothing to see here
the police always say
but at the scene of the crime
you can't look away

and take heart
my only love
there's nothing to scare
that I can think of
cause nothing in this world
was meant to last
and these troubling times
will surely pass

there's an ocean of silence between us these days
what's left unsaid
rattles in my head
going to war is no easy task
going it alone is too much to ask

we didn't start this thing to lay down our arms
when the going gets tough
when we're flying toward harm
there's nothing to do but charge in the night
toward the coming of day
toward end of the fight
