Doing what it does so well
I can hear the old church bell
Each day has a number now
It's singing low
Water soon will turn to steam
Bees are buzzing in my dream
Suddenly the garden seems
So far away
"Don't give in" they'll say
There's nowhere to run anyway
I have decided to stay
And take on the shadow that darkens the day
Take on the mountain that stands in the way
In the mouth of a shadow
In the mouth of a shadow
In the mouth of a shadow
In the eye of a storm
Winter still defends itself
But one day all this ice will melt
I will take your bony hand
And move along
"Don't give in" they'll say
There's nowhere to run anyway
I have decided to stay
Take on the shadow that darkens the day
Take on the mountain that stands in the way
In the mouth of a shadow
In the mouth of a shadow
In the mouth of a shadow
In the eye of a storm
In the mouth of a shadow
In the mouth of a shadow
In the mouth of a shadow
In the eye of a storm
