Lyrics Blue Embers - The Head and the Heart

One, two, three, four

When you were young and you were alive
Before you let it pass you by
Lyin' awake, night after night
Starin' at the ceiling

You were afraid, but God knows why
So what's it gonna take, honey
For you to believe there might be a better life waitin'?

Don't make it worse, let it go past
Maybe we'll find the time to walk again in the sun
Before the darkness that comes around for everyone
And I know that it's hard on you, but it's hard on me too
Honey, we're lost together

And I know that I'll believe in you, honey, if you'll believe in me
But I know it's hard to do because I don't believe in anything
Honey, and I'll believe in you only if you'll believe in me
But I know it's hard to do because I don't
Wanna believe in me

Where did you lose the fire in your eyes, little blue embers?
Funny the way the well runs dry used to feel something
Used to believe the power lies, somewhere inside
I couldn't see that there was a better life waitin'

I know it hurts, and it goes fast
We didn't take the time to walk together in the sun
Before the darkness, honey, that came just like I knew it would
And I know I was hard on you, you were hard on me too
Maybe we're lost forever

But I know that I'll believe in you, honey, if you'll believe in me
And I know it's hard to do because I don't believe in anything
Honey, and I'll believe in you only if you'll believe in me
But I know it's hard to do because I don't
Wanna believe in me

When you were young and you were alive
When you were young and you were alive
