How's the Heart?

We see a mother with no child

We meet a stranger poor, exiled

How's the heart while it still beats?

Asks a no-one

Another John Doe

Sorrow hides well in your shell

A fellow man with hurt to spare

Dear one

Here I am to share the fear

An act of kindness

Without an amen

How's the heart

Underneath the silence?

How's the one

Drowning in the mire?

Let us sound a human paean

Come in, the fire's warm

Burn the rope and dance some more

We met where the cliff greets the sea

Shared a story, took the leap

Rose up rooted, hid a note

You know where

You've been there

Now there's one who came from me

A child of light, another tale

Dear one

Night will come but not to stay

Why?

The answer's in the

How's the heart

Underneath the silence?

How's the one

Drowning in the mire?

Let us sound a human paean

Come in, the fire's warm

Burn the rope and dance some more

Fair winds my love

Fly towards the calm

Fly utterly lost

Towards a beating heart

A beating heart

How is that heart

Underneath the silence?

How is the one

Drowning in the mire?

Let us sound a human paean

Come on in, the fire's warm

How is that heart

Underneath the silence?

How is the one

Drowning in the mire?

Let us sound a human paean

Come on in, the fire's warm

How's that heart

Underneath the silence?

How's the one

Drowning in the mire?

Let us sound a human paean

Come on in

How's that heart

Underneath the silence?

How's the one

Drowning in the mire?

Let us sound a human paean

Come on in, the fire's warm

Dull the blade and dance some more

How's that heart?

How's the one

Drowning in the mire?

Let us sound a human paean

Come on in, the fire's warm

Dull the blade and dance some more

How's that heart

Underneath the silence?

How's the one

Drowning in the mire?

Let us sound a human paean

Come in, the fire's warm

Burn the rope and dance some more
