Shock my senses, small town shoes
I change tenses, it's no use
Hard to measure what I lose
In a world without you
Gather up the broken hearts
Try and tape them on my heart
Hard to measure the sky above
In your world without love
And all my faults are very dry
Oh, my throat is very dry, very dry
And all my prayers are very tired
All my prayers are very tired
You're a desert, lasting dry
Feeling nothing all the time
Hard to wash away your pain
In your world without rain
And though my feet are running on
I'm not getting very far, very far
And all these thoughts are spinning round
All these words that make no sound
How's your mouth, baby?
Many say our time is gone
Come and gone and to move one
Hard to find where I belong
In my arms, you stay strong
And this waiting seems too wrong
In your arms, I stand strong
