If fate holds a purpose
You feel fate will lend a hand
It saves face deserts you
and deals grace from underhand
And every time the past's awakened
Every time your soul starts breaking
You can't stand the distance
You can't stand to not to be afraid
You won't show resisitance
You can't seem to run away
'cause every time the past's awakened
Every time your soul starts breaking
In the face of the fire
You see angels conspire
Will they hear your desires
Will they stop your soulbreaking
Could they stop your soulbreaking
You won't say you're hurting
You still dream in the undertow
Just a safe place a haven
Just a kind face just to overthrow
Every time the past's awakened
Every time your soul starts breaking
In the face of the fire
You see angels conspire
Will they hear your desires
Will they stop your soulbreaking
Could they stop your soulbreaking
Every time the past's awakened
Every time my soul starts breakingWith a pawnshop eyes and a second hand frown
she sat silent at the table
Her boots were brown, should she leave town
To play the role of lover ex-patriot
A nod to the waiter,always her flirty behavior,
You know she always gets one on the house
She pulls out a letter from a bag
Under her sweater and before she
reads she straightens her blouse
There's a passion in being alone A grace in a loveless time
There's no new cross, there's no new sign
only the sun and the changing tide
And out of respect, well really must confess
I never lost your number I never
lost your address
And if we remain friends at best
Sometime later no, no not yet
we'll smile and remember it like this
She put back the letter,one tear
falls like a feather and disappears
on this bar room floor
The gratuity included, you know
the letter concluded
P.S. All my love
