Cut So Deep Lyrics

I've been thinking about an old song

I've been dreaming about your eyes

I've been scheming into my coffee

Weaving stories, telling lies

And every morning when I wake without you there

It's like I'm drowning in a breathless sleep

In the moments when I see you everywhere

The world around me starts to weep

Who knew that love could cut so deep?

I've been lurking like tomorrow

I've been bitter, I've been lost

I've been searching for my shadow

At every station of the cross

And every time I think I see my former self

I turn my collar and I cross the street

And as I'm walking I can hear cathedral bells

Since when did sorrow sound so sweet?

And who knew that love could cut so deep?

Well I know it would be a sin

To say a prayer in the shape I'm in

My heart is a foreign shore

And nothing more

It'll never be anything more

So I'll wander, like a stranger

Through the fields that I used to know

And I'll deal with the dark and danger

And every which way wind might blow

These lonely words can only hope to bring to life

The shapes I see within the heat

And all these lessons I have learned about the night

Won't ever make me feel complete

Who knew that love could cut so deep?
