This living soul They say it lasts forever But I can't lift my head today Forgiving yourself Somehow I never learned it Still longing for that accolade And I'm weary Weary in the morning When did that begin? When did that begin? There was a time when everything shimmered With the light of a billion, trillion stars Lift up your hands and feel it all over The light of a billion, trillion stars Come over the river, into the light of The light of a billion, trillion stars Burning words Like a nine a.m. warm whiskey When there's nothing else within my reach And I'm seeing past These yellow blinds that cage me Beyond the roofs it's blue today But I'm weary Weary in the morning When did that begin? When did that begin? There was a time when everything shimmered With the light of a billion, trillion stars Lift up your hands and feel it all over The light of a billion, trillion stars Come over the river, into the light of The light of a billion, trillion stars There was a time when everything shimmered With the light of a billion, trillion stars Lift up your hands and feel it all over The light of a billion, trillion stars Come over the river, into the light of The light of a billion, trillion stars
