Cruel Heart, Tender World Lyrics

And whatever they'd like from us now

They'll wish it from another well

That's greater instead

My arms are over-sullen now

To sift through all the swollen beauty

Stuck in my head

Romantic luck is always struck down

But I elect to dissipate the lover's lament

Now that I finally found out

I'm at the starting line but much better again

Nobody has it right

Forget about the prophets of today

And why should we abide?

So easy to invent a God with softer ways

And even if I tried

To tell you you're just gonna feel it too someday

There's nothing to malign

The mercy of an overflowing life

What an electrifying earth

Where there's no quantifying love

So unafraid to see the whole cruel world

Tender heart

Do everything I've ever done

To forge a simple paradise

They don't see what this world means

In our eyes

In our eyes

In our eyes
