Hawksley Workman The Ground We Stand On Lyrics

This is the studio version from the album MEAT
It's so cold here and I miss you.
And I can't help feeling broken.
I treat myself like I'm not fragile.
Like there's no care to be taken.
And I was up last night just thinking
A hundred reasons to be sorry.
Why don't you come and lay beside me
Since there's too much now that's vacant.
*REFF:
And oh the time that we keep wasting,
Like we don't know
The joy that's hard to bear.
For the ground that we stand on
Won't long be there.
I pray that we will never tire
Of the work that lies before us.
I feel that I will be the weak one
And that you will have to carry me.
I hope there never is a phone call
To say that it's too dark to keep trying.
I hope there's time left to discover
How to cry at all the beauty.
Back to REFF
Interlude: D A Bm (2x)
*Back to REFF
I guess it's me there in the mirror
But I can't say that I know him.
When you tell me that you love me
There's no reason I should doubt you.
