Lyrics A Fearless Heart - 1997

A Fearless Heart

Time moves slowly as of late
The world that is spinning looks more to me like a grave
So I’ll run back to the quarry where all of my worries would fade
It’s the places we belong clouded days
Your heavy heels will lift and they will take you far
Don’t ever forget the will of your fearless heart
Well it wasn’t a mountain but it was the highest point
We could find to escape from the city and make some noise
We would sneak past the trees and scream wild at the world so tame
They need power for lights while we dance through the night round the flame
Your weightless bones will soar you where you want to go
Don’t ever forget the will of your fearless heart
This is the only moment that truly matters
Don’t you waste it with tasting the past or the salt in your eyes
Life’s a gas it just goes so fast, and then you die
But I won’t ever forget when our lips were wet and a smile was free
And the whole world was spinning in circles around you and me
Both nearly deaf from the ringing laughter
This is the only moment that truly matters
Your heels will lift, your bones will soar when you recall what’s true
Don’t ever forget it’s always been in you
Once the world shimmered bright
But now the gloss just fades to night
Once I was a child of sight
Until the darkness stole the light
