Richard Wright - Far from the Harbour Wall lyrics

A part of herself, she thought love was dying, The game of opposites, a hateful lie. She can't hang on at all, she's giving up the fight. She's locked in a wall of ice, Through half the day and half the night On a path that's been prescribed. Nothing comes, but she can't leave her life Or hear the falling rain, or the heart race in her. And dark as it grows at night, with fear of light's change She's drowning away In what she can do and what she contains And her heart is so low. Now, because I could not cope with pain, How things are not the same, she's got no remedies. A heartbreaking fall and I fear a change of cource I feel like we were born insane, I hear the love, I fear the love For the heart is low, see how it grows apart. And deep from the other side, we live our lives so plain We have no night, we have no day, we have no falling rain. Not love in our eyes, not love in our stare Felt more like inner sea, had no quality So say those who drown at night Far from the harbour wall, far from the harbour wall.
