Lyrics Resolution - Dougie MacLean

Resolution

All eyes are empty, they hide the heavy heart
And who’ll fix the broken dream, before it falls apart?
All things equal, to whom it may concern
The child will lose the place, and time will never learn
Hide away, don’t hide away
It’s just the price we have to pay
When nothing seems too clear
It’s so close but never near
Hide away, don’t hide away
So many foolish things they say
From the place we started from
To resolution
All things equal, it’s useless to ignore
The well known stranger, who is waiting at your door
We stand in silence, how can we be here?
Waiting in the shadow light, for nothing to appear
Hide away, don’t hide away
It’s just the price we have to pay
When nothing seems too clear
It’s so close but never near
Hide away, don’t hide away
So many foolish things they say
From the place we started from
To resolution
All things equal, to whom it may concern
The soldier leaves his post, the jury will adjourn
All faults forgotten, and old fools won’t repent
As around their jaded words, they loiter with intent
Hide away, don’t hide away
It’s just the price we have to pay
When nothing seems too clear
It’s so close but never near
Hide away, don’t hide away
So many foolish things they say
From the place we started from
To resolution
