James Taylor - How Sweet It Is lyrics

See the water burning through my hands

Fight to cleanse the stain again

Feel the chilling wind rush by it tries

To push all from memory

Pick up the pieces of discarded trust

I must learn to form that word again

And remove the blind from blackened eyes

That were told they did not see

And Shield

The sunlight from my eyes

It's been so long since

I have seen who I am

I used to feel so much

Search please let us touch

This forgotten love

Hear the echo of wasted words

Ricochet in my emptiness

As the raging flame of passion scorned

Reflects on my frozen skin

Again

On my skin

Until then

Shield

The sunlight from my eyes

It's been so long since

I used to feel so much

Search please let us touch

This forgotten love

I couldn't see in my submission

The chains were attached to nothing

The word love cannot love for you

The word love

It cannot love for you

Beneath the shell in darkness

Waits a timid heart

To beat again for another

And these blackened eyes and bloodstained hands

Wait to give

And receive

Shield

The sunlight from my eyes

It's been so long since

I used to feel so much

Search please let us touch

This forgotten love
