Ground Beneath Lyrics

I saw the light dance on your face
Paint the shadows of your shape
Back when the season made the days so long

And if I knew my time would come
With the lines rehearsed but never sung
I'd leave the chorus on your tongue
I swear

Now I look around to see the ground beneath my feet
Every second takes a thousand days away from me
And if I close my eyes
I hear the gates swing wide
And by the morning light
I will have seen both sides

I've got a funny feeling that it's my day to leave
Shoulders down the sweat drips across my cheek
As I turn I can taste the salt in the shallow sea
I feel their hearts beating next to me
I hear the chatter of my teeth

And I look around to see the ground beneath my feetSherrie Austin - Ground Beneath - http://motolyrics.com/sherrie-austin/ground-beneath-lyrics.html
The final thrill, the quiet spill, the vile retreat
Do you see the waves running away from me?
You taste the cold here in the air I breathe
Why'd you let me go? 'Cause I can no longer see

And I scream
Oh my god
Oh my god
Oh my god
Oh my god
Oh my god
Oh my god

Now I look around to see the ground beneath my feet
Every second takes a thousand days away from me
If I close my eyes
I hear the gates swing wide
And by the morning light
I will have seen both sides
So why'd you let me go?
I can no longer see
And I can't breathe
