Mark Gillespie - The Wake Is Over Lyrics
Or a high-flying bird that just refuses to soar?A rolling wave that never reaches the shoreline?On and on till the end of timeI don’t want to fight about it anymoreBecause there’s no doubt in my mindAnd I’m so weary and soreAnd I’m reminded byEach breath that I’m drawingThat it’s life and death, no restThere’s no line you can drawThere’s always more and moreOne day you’re upthe next you’re on the way downthen you’re in itbelow, above, and all aroundand all for a minute of this loveyou go round and aroundthen you know you’ve founda straighter way through the battlegroundand you can see just how badit’s really beenbut now the battlefieldis turning greenand you can see that no matterhow bad it seemsa friend can mend a lifeof broken dreamsand you know you’re free to go in loveand you think it’s you and me nowthen you hear some voice moaningit’s alone, alonewere you hurledor did you just float?Falling down to the worldWithout love, without hopeWere you bound or freeAnd was I really drowning?Coming down to meBoth feet on the groundAnd in the whirlwindYou can only hope you can floatNever leaving what you’ve foundNot believing in ghostsThen there’s nothing to knowNot even hoping in hopeJust taking it slowBecause we’re in the same boatThere’s no snake, no ropeAnd somehow you know it takes timeTaking it slowlyBut the wake is overTaking it slowThe wake is overYou can see how happy I amYou can see the lionLying down with the lambYou can see how good I’m feelingI didn’t know if the feeling was realAnd you can see how happy I amI am a man who didn’t understandAnd you can see just how good I feelI feel it in my heartThat you’ve been stealingIs that how you feel?Turning the wheel, turningIs that how you feel?Take this heartThat you’ve been stealingYou don’t have to kneelYou’re turning the wheel, turningIs that how you feel?
