歌曲:All This And Heaven Too
And the heart is
hard to translate
It has a language of its own
It talks and turns and
courts sighs and
present proclamations
In the grand days of great
men and the smallest
of gestures
And short shallow gasps
But with all my education
I can’t seem to command it
And the words are all
skipping and coming back
all damaged
And I will put them back in
poetry if I only knew how
I can’t seem to
understand it
And I would give all
this and heaven too
I would give it all if
only for a moment
That I could just understand
the meaning of the
word you see
Cause I’ve been scrawling
it forever but it never
makes sense to me at all
And it talks to me
in tiptoes
And sings to me inside
It cries out in the darkest
night and breaks in
morning light
But with all my education
I can’t seem to command it
And the words are all
skipping and coming
back all damaged
And I will put them back
in poetry if I only knew how
I can’t seem to
understand it
And I would give all this
and heaven too
I would give it all if only
for a moment
That I could just understand
the meaning of the
word you see
Cause I’ve been scrawling
it forever but it never
makes sense to me at all
And I would give all this
and heaven too
I would give it all if
only for a moment
That I could just understand
the meaning of the
word you see
Cause I’ve been scrawling
it forever but it never
makes sense to me at all
No words are a language
that doesn’t deserve
such treatment
That all of my stumbling
phrases never amounted to
anything worth this feeling
All this heaven never could
describe such a feeling
as I’m here
Words were never so useful
til I was screaming out a
language that I never
knew existed before
