David Gray - Gathering Dust lyrics

But that I must

Maybe I feel

Like I've been gathering dust

I must leave this harbour for the sea

I'm too young to settle down and make a home

But I don't know where I'm wanting to be

I just know I have to be there alone

Stole my time, all my time

Stole my time for you

Pale winter sun

Is beatin' the ground

Why am I throwing away

The best thing that I've found

My young heart's in tatters and I'm sure

That it will be a long time healing

It's so hard to see what I'm doing this for

When loneliness is all that I'm feeling

Stole my time, all my time

Spend my time for you

Now the wind is blowing

Blowing leaves from the trees

I've got no use knowing

That with time it'll ease

I don't know where I'm going

Hope I get there soon

'Cause my soul is hollow

As the sorrowful moon

Na na na na...

Now the wind is blowing

Blowing leaves from the trees

I've got no use knowing

That with time it'll ease

I don't know where I'm going

Hope I get there soon

'Cause my soul is hollow

As the sorrowful moon

Na na na na...

The night is raining on my weary head

Taking me back

See the sun spread its wings of gold

As the dawn unfurls

Hear the song that the moon sings

To the darkened world

Feel the fire lighting

In the bitter cold

It's like the light that shines

Through the windows of your soul
