Looking for a moment that'll never happen
Well, if it's so deep you don't think that you can speak about it
But just you wait and see
It could take me all of my life
Two strings speak in sympathy
But I don't know if I'm ready yet
Tell you what I'm feeling
If you can't tell your sister, if you can't tell a priest
Take away the love and the anger
What would we do without you?
What would we do without you?
Speaking in sympathy
And a little piece of hope holding us together
Just remember to reach out and touch the past and the future
And a little piece of hope holding us together
Well, if it's so deep you don't think that you can speak about it
We're building a house of the future together
Take away the stone and the timber
We could be like two strings beating
What would we do without you?
Take away the love and the anger
Looking for a moment that'll never happen
And a little piece of rope won't hold it together
What would we do without you?
To let go of these feelings like a bell to a southerly wind?
Take away the stone and the timber
You come walking into this room
And what would I do without you?
And a little piece of rope won't hold it together
Can you tell it to your heart? Can you find it in your heart
Don't ever think that you can't change the past and the future
Like you're walking into my arms
You might not, not think so now
'Cause it's so deep you don't think that you can speak about it to anyone
Living in the gap between past and future
But it would only take a moment to
Living in the gap between past and future
