Bill Beare - They Cry Lyrics

I've known love as a pure and magical thing
And I'm attracted to the mad adventures it brings
And I've been captured and committed to fanciful things
But I know love is a fluid and changeable thing
That suits the casual, carefree, careless vagrant within
And even when we've got it, we're dogged by the constant
That things can never stay the same
And then when we've lost it, we're still held hostage
By the chance of resurrecting the flame

We sit on a bridge between your world and mine
While below our feet, flow our dreams that roll out into the tide
There's no decision can heal nor hide
The deep division deep inside
There's no wishin' no hope nor ambition can spur the will to try
While there on the beach, our better angels
Hold each other tight with tears in their eyes
And as they watch our love drift out to sea
And disappear into a distant horizon, they cry. Oh, how they cry

I've known you as someone who can warm my soul
And though I fought it, you taught me things I needed to know
And your beautiful heart that caught me so long ago
But I know you can cut me down to the bone
Without a moment's thought can shut me out in the cold
And it's cold out here

As we sit on the bridge
