Look out your front door, there's ship comin' in I can't tell you what it brings So carry your grief on down to the port Tonight were bound for other shores
We live like the sun, comin' up, comin' down Ever distant, ever proud Now the world unfolds, shall young never see All the wounds that never bleed
Wounds that never bleed Wounds that never bleed
Just hold the line You'll find my time's not enough And I'll hold the line And you'll find my time's not enough
Can beauty be stark, so sad and wise? Just like an ocean in your eyes Can I carry the load, can I slip in your skin? On the outside lookin' in
Outside lookin' in Outside lookin' in
And just hold the line You'll find my time's not enough And just hold the line And you'll find my time's not enough
It's the peace that I'm defending I don't know son, I don't know son Knowledge bears a price unending And I don't know son, I don't know son
Just hold the line And you'll find that time's not enough
There's a light on your face and I hope on the breeze A knowing whisper in the trees There's money to burn and books to read Another lie to be believed
