SAPLING Lyrics – FOY VANCE FT RAG’N’BONE MAN
I remember way back
When I felt only ennui
Like nothing could complete me
No promise of a rising sun
Illuminating everyone
The very thought defeating
But man alive what a blinding light
It must be what it’s like when worlds collide
Especially when he sees her
Pretty soon he’ll tease her
I was on the road so long
My laboured love bore only song
And not one of them a keeper
But if I woke in the morning to find you were gone
I know I’d try to find the will to be strong
But am I strong enough
I once built a bower
I could build you a home
Together forever
But forever anon is still not long enough
The look of fear was in your eyes
But I could see myself as a child
Such a devastating feeling
How I wished I could go back in time
But all I could do is apologize
Right then your eyes were healing
Healing
But if I woke in the morning to find you were gone
I know I’d try to find the will to be strong
But am I strong enough
I once built a bower
I could build you a home
Together forever
But forever anon is still not long enough
Oh I have been Cain
But I wanna be able
Been a drunken fool
But I wanted to be stable
Enough to lay every one of my cards out on the table
I hope it’s not too late for us to find a way through
But if I woke in the morning to find you were gone
I know I’d try to find the will to be strong
But am I strong enough
I once built a bower
I could build you a home
Together forever
But forever anon is still not long enough
