A FAITH CALLED CHAOS - FORGIVE NOTHING lyrics

Somewhere there is a spouse

Sitting on the window pane

She sings, “salt and sea bring him home to me"

Where are you my love?

And when the time runs out

Thirty years from now

Who will be the one left to sing

For you.

Who will keep the lights on?

For you.

The only songs I know

Dear my lover

This halogen bulb knows

That the glow of a porch light

Welcomes the sailor home

Out side the sky waxes red

With the street lights up ahead

Blink in and out of sync with his soul

Again tonight

Somewhere tonight

There is some one begging to God to keep hope alive

And there's me

There is someone tonight whose had to bury their child

She is still awake

Oh quietly come oh quietly sit and be with me

Keep this years port wine close so it won't eclipse

These shores

Life's a war that gives us hope

But even that promise won't bring me home.

It won't bring me home.

Forgive nothing.
