How long was I asleep?
When did we plan to meet? Have you been waiting long for me? When did the sky turn black? Do you still want me back? I'll pick it all up piece by piece. And the wheel goes round and round. And the flame in our souls will never burn out. And the wheel, and the wheel goes round. I am a river with a voice. I came into your life by choice. And none can judge just how that feels. You are a messenger from God. You are the angel I forgot. And who's to say that it isn't real? And the wheel goes round and round. And the flame in our souls will never burn out. And the wheel, and the wheel goes round. I'm not looking for the answers. Oh, darling don't you see That just to know the question Is good enough for me. Take up the hearts you came to heal. Put down your dagger and your shield. You need fear nothing now from me. I see the essence of the man. I stand before you as a friend. The truth moves through us even when we sleep. And the wheel goes round and round. And the flame in our souls will never burn out. And the wheel, and the wheel goes round. ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By ROSANNE CASH <i>Lyrics © BUG MUSIC</i> |

The world keeps getting smaller
'til it closes 'round my room and everything I feel now is hard and fast and true My window is a spotlight on the madness down below it takes a silent figure to make this place a home Now the candles burn all night without |

In the middle of my life
When my fate was sealed and tied The heavens rain down fire The earth and moon conspire To open up my eyes Make me face my lies I crawl through an abyss I struggle and resist Somehow I break free Someone becomes me And when I stand upright I'm filled with a new light I'm given one more chance So I change partners In this new dance The moon stays on a course No mortal will force The courage to go deep Is gathered while we sleep I'm purified by fire Renewed by my desire Nothings left to chance So I change partners In this new dance I change partners In this new dance I'll change partners |

I'll send the angels to watch
Over you tonight And you send them right back To me A lonely road is a bodyguard If we really want it to be There's a fascination behind Every window But I know you really care for me And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris And we can set those angels free No one sees behind the mask No one knows I'm sinking fast But soon we'll be sleeping in Paris And we can set those angels free Love is just a lunar slave It's tied to the ebb and flow Generations get glued to the waves Just to see which way they'll go There's a desperation on wild street corners But I think you're just waiting for me And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris And we can set those wild ones free No one sees behind the door But everyday it's one step forward And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris And we can set those wild ones free All those nights I laid with my eyes closed But not sleeping at all Those nights I thought I knew which way the wind blows But now its blowing me back to you And the wind speaks French too No one sees and no one knows But every day I'm letting go And soon we'll be sleeping in Paris Soon we'll we sleeping in Paris And we can set those angels free |

I'm staying in your house
I'm sleeping in your bed I'm walking through your dreams I'm dancing through your head I'm calling from the streets I'm crying like the wind 'Cause you are there And I am here And you won't let me in We'll I'm changing like a girl On the threshold of her life In love with the whole world But staring down each night You're everything I need A love I can't defend [Chorus] But you are there And I am here And you won't let me in No time for kisses No time to laugh No way that I can see To crawl out of our past Well I'm falling to my knees But I'm flying like a bird I follow where you lead I hang on every word I can't control the wind I don't care who you've been I keep callin' |

I don't have to carry this load alone
Someday I'll stop crying, and it won't be long My eyes to the distance, baby My hands on the wheel And I'm gonna rise from the ashes That's how I feel, I feel I'm gonna rise from the ashes I feel inspiration when all may be lost I claim resurrection no matter the cost My moment of waking, darlin' Is so close at hand And I'm gonna rise from the ashes I know I can, I can I'm gonna rise from the ashes Just give me one more moment Just give me one more night I'll be alright You know I will I will I hold onto faith inside my fear I know someone hears me when no one is near My heart is my compass My soul is my guide And I'm gonna rise from the ashes Be alive, so alive I'm gonna rise from the ashes |

I know the truth about you babe
Know the stories you tell I can feel your heart locked up inside you Swear I know you so well When the wind blows out across the water and we stand here in this light all our secrets fall like raindrops between us and i know the truth tonight know the truth about you babe i can feel it through your hands i can touch it when i'm sleeping i can love it when you can if our ships sail on to distant places and our memories burn and fade i might say i loved a man just like you and i know the truth today i know the truth bout you babe where you fall and where you stand where your walls still come between us where you take it like a man |

It's the ghost of a dream
That awakens me in the night When no ones around But I don't hear the sound Of those tears falling down And its the breath of a kiss And so much tenderness That drives my knees to the ground But we don't hear the sound Of those tears falling down There's a river that won't forget And a wind that gives us breath But in the cradle of our fears We sleep without tears And it's your eyes close to mine That lets in the light That shows me where love can be found But I don't hear the sound Of those tears falling down |

I throw your roses in the fire
To make the flames a little higher I watch your roses turn to dust I know no man that I can trust I throw your roses in the fire 'Cause I burn with pity and desire I'll be your vision dressed in black Who won't be back Another woman's on the telephone Pick it up Tell her you're home I see your face turn into broken glass Talking slow Thinking fast I throw your roses in the fire No one could say I didn't try I watch your roses fall like tears I've crawled this path for all these years I throw your roses in the fire To burn away the old desire We were a desperate pair of souls So let me go Another woman has her point of view Let her talk Now that we're through I see your face retreat behind the glass Oh I'll kill you if we can't be friends I'll bleed like diamonds running Through your hands I'll be a bitter taste you can't forget And I won't leave this world until you relent I throw your roses on the fire To burn away the old desire I watch your roses turn to dust I know no man that I can trust I throw your roses in the fire To make the flames a little higher I'll be your vision dressed in black Who won't be back I won't be back I won't be back |

We are awakened, restored, and renewed
The bonds of desire have led me to you The heat of the questions that linger and stir Is the fire that enfolds us, a place to be cured Salvation and rescue And the one thing of which I am sure [Chorus:] Your hand on my heart And its beating in time To the sound of your voice And the look in your eyes The moment you touch me All down inside Is the fire of the newly alive The passion of old is a children's quick game Now it's the sound of the thunder And feel of the flames You leave me a message so deep in my skin Where you stop is where I begin You are the reason, the time and the face I am dissolving in oceans of grace I'd give up a lifetime to keep you from harm Be your salvation and rescue And burn bridges to lie in your arms |

I walk through the wind, the snow and the rain
And no one is there when I fall The sound of my heartbeat Is all I have left But you know once I had it all The prayers of a fool are spoken in haste And I'm just the one who would know But I'm sending signals 'Cause I'm falling deeper Than I though I could go If there's a God on my side Why don't she show me her face If there's a God on my side Could she live in this place? If there's a God on my side Is she inside these walls? If there's a God on my side Why don't she show me her face? If there's a God on my side Could she live in this place? If there's a God on my side Is she inside these walls? If there's a God on my side Could she not hear me call? And I keep on calling Oh I keep on calling |
