Jars Of Clay - Skin And Bones Lyrics
Love is skin and bones we don’t want to beWasting all our breath on things that we don’t think that we’ll needLove is skin and bones no one else can seeBehind the door we are unhappy that’s between you and meThat’s between you and meLove is skin and bones, too many mouths to feedWe’ve made an art of neglecting what we don’t want to seeLove is skin and bones trying to set us freeI can feel the pulse is dying in captivitySomeday, someday soon we’re going to open our eyesBreak out the windows and fly, I want to see itLove is skin and bones screaming inside of meLike a siren on the crest of the emergencyLove is skin and bones for the world to seeTo remind us that the heart will never hold our pityLook over my love while she sleeps tonightLook over my love while she sleeps tonight, tonightSomeday, someday we’re going to open our eyesBreak out the windows and fly, I want to see itSomeday, someday when all the words feel wrongYou’ll have a heart beating strong, it will go on and onSomeday, someday when all of the words feel wrongYou’ll have a heart beating strong, it will go on and on.
