An Aching And a Longing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
An aching and a longing
The sun rises a miracle each day
But wise men point the other way, away
Soft she comes like a pillow to my face
The burning passion and warm embrace of love
We don't know nothing
We don't know much
Just an aching and a longing
To be loved
Water runs down a mountainside
I see my shame and i turn and i hide, hide away
The idols of men standing proud and tall
But the eagle flying will be there when they fall, fall away
We don't know nothing
We don't know much
Just an aching and a longing
To be loved
Loved with dignity, whispers deep inside of me
A million years away from what the experts have to say
We don't know nothing
We don't know much
Just an aching and a longing
To be loved
