lyrics

The words upon the winds have been calling, oh
Now it turns out that they brought in storms
All along your tent was fallen
Nowhere to lay your head and ponder
You wanna be alone but since then been calling

The eloquence is gone
The eloquence is gone

I’m standing in line just to let you go
My instinct was to run and not look back
Now it’s time to rise above it all
To stretch your wings above
Stranded in time, heads are gonna roll
It’s up to you to make it home
Now it’s time to rise above it all
One last time to make it right
One last time to make it right
We gotta make it right

I’ve heard the sound before
A rustle through the brush
Now it’s time to turn the page
And hear what’s to come
Feeling the summer breeze
The warmth into the bones
Time to turn the page again
The story that becomes light

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

The words upon the winds have been calling, oh
Now it turns out that they brought in storms
All along the tent was fallen
Nowhere to lay my head and ponder
I wanna be alone but since then been calling

The eloquence is gone
The eloquence is gone

I’m standing in line just to let you go
My instinct was to run and not look back
Now it’s time to rise above it all
You stretch your wings above
I’m standing in line, heads are gonna roll
It’s up to you to make it home
Now it’s time to rise above it all
One last time to make it right
One last time to make it right
Who’s gonna make it right

All along my tent was fallen
Nowhere to lay my head and ponder
I wanna be alone but since then been calling

The eloquence has come
The eloquence has come

I’m standing in line just to let you go
My instinct was to run and not look back
Now it’s time to rise above it all
To stretch your wings and go
When stranded in time heads are gonna roll
It’s up to you to make it home
Now it’s time to rise above it all
One last time to make it right
Ooh, make it bright
