Blind

Heather Nova

I've been searching for the answers


I've been diving in the sea


I've been haunted by the shadows


of what we could have been





And it's not that I'm broken


And it isn't that I bleed


But when you pulled the stars from heaven


It got so hard to see





And where would I put my hands now?





It's over now


we had our time


It's over now


we had our time


but you leave me blind


Will you leave me blind?





Dove for the treasures


We went deep down for the pearls


And we could have cracked it open


it could have been so good





And where would I put my hands now?





It's over now


we had our time


It's over now


we had our time





I feel this pain


I know I'm alive


If love is wrong then I'm doing time


I feel myself


small like a child


My love has gone, how will I survive


It's everywhere


it's in the trees


All those stars and I can't see


I'm blind





And how will you think of us?


A crease along your hand


Lying at these temple doors


Beautiful and sad





And where would I put my hands now?





It's over now


we had our time


It's over now


we had our time


but you leave me blind


Will you leave me blind?
