Time Wears Thin Lyrics

I don’t need your sense of obligation.

It doesn’t carry its own weight.

You keep your bland communication.

I’ll keep my heart. I’ll keep my faith.

I don’t want to go on some vacation,

Some fleeting moment of escape.

I’m searchin’ for a road to take me home again,

Some old, familiar place.

Time wears thin as the Earth turns ‘round.

Holding each other is what this life’s about.

Can you hear the ocean in the prairie wind?

Can you feel my heartbeat beneath my skin?

Can you feel my heartbeat beneath my skin?

For months after I lost him,

Time doubled back, worn thin.

I fell outside of now,

Traveled between, apart, within.

And I found I could not touch life.

I moved beside in another plane.

And I found I could not feel love,

Only grief and loss and pain.

Time wears thin as the Earth turns ‘round.

Holding each other is what this life’s about.

Can you hear the ocean in the prairie wind?

Can you feel my heartbeat beneath my skin?

Can you feel my heartbeat beneath my skin?

Ley lines lie across the weary ground,

Meet where the world grows thin.

Can what I seek be found?

If I could only touch love, reach beyond time’s shroud.

If I could only sense light beyond the darkest cloud. . . .

If I could only sense light beyond the darkest cloud.

And time wears thin as the Earth turns ‘round.

Holding each other is what this life’s about.

Can you hear the ocean in the prairie wind?

Can you feel my heartbeat beneath my skin?

Can you feel my heartbeat beneath my skin?
