A Cross To Bear lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh I died one night
When the sky was a blanket of stars
And you sounded as clear to me then
As I'd heard you in years
As I lowered my eyes, understanding
Goodbyes I heard
You just turned away, taking your smile
And those crippling words

[Verse 2]
Then you blew from my life
Like the southern wind stealing the flame
’Till all I had left
Were the tears at the drop of your name
And I know I'm just fooling myself
Into thinking you care
But maybe one day I'll rush in
And discover you thеre

[Chorus]
’Cause love is an anchor
Lovе is a knife
Love is the healer
In my life
[Verse 3]
Well I know that it seems like sometimes
I howl at the moon
But it's something that happens
When loneliness steps in the room
Though I know I'm just fooling myself
Into thinking you care
But maybe one night I'll awake
And uncover you there

[Chorus]
'Cause love is an anchor
Love is a knife
Love is the healer
In my life

[Verse 4]
Though I know I'm just hurting myself
It's a cross I can bear
'Cause I died one night
When the sky was a ribbon of stars
And you were there
