Lyrics

0:15I got no reason but that I must
0:28Maybe I feel like I've been gathering dust
0:41I must leave this harbour for the sea
0:47I'm too young to settle down and make a home
0:54But I don't know where I'm wanting to be
1:01I just know I have to be there alone
1:10Stole my time all my time
1:24Stole my time for you
1:43Pale winter sun is beatin' the ground
1:56Why'm I throwin' away the best thing
2:03That I've found
2:09My young heart's in tatters and I'm sure
2:17That it will be a long time healing
2:23It's so hard to see what I'm doing this for
2:30When loneliness is all that I'm feeling
2:38Stole my time all my time
2:52Spend my time for you
2:59Now the wind it is blowing
3:02Blowing leaves from the trees
3:05I've got no use knowing
3:09That with time it will ease
3:12I don't know where I'm going
3:15Hope I get there soon
3:19Cause my soul is hollow as the sorrowful moon
3:26Na na na na
3:40Na na na na
3:53Now the wind it is blowing
3:56Blowing leaves from the trees
4:00I've got no use knowing that with time it will ease
4:06I don't know where I'm going
4:10Hope I get there soon
4:13Cause my soul is hollow as the sorrowful moon
4:20Cause my soul is hollow as the sorrowful moon
4:27Na na na na
4:47Na
5:01The night is raining on my weary head
5:08Taking me back
5:13See the sun spread its wings of gold
5:17As the dawn unfurls
5:20Hear the song that the moon sings
5:23To the darkened world
5:26Feel the fire lighting in the bitter cold
5:33See the light that shines through
5:37The windows of your soul
5:43The windows of your soul
5:48Na
5:57The windows of your soul
6:00The windows of your soul
6:05Na
I got no reason but that I must
Maybe I feel like I've been gathering dust
I must leave this harbour for the sea
I'm too young to settle down and make a home
But I don't know where I'm wanting to be
I just know I have to be there alone
Stole my time  all my time
Stole my time for you
Pale winter sun is beatin' the ground
Why'm I throwin' away the best thing
That I've found
My young heart's in tatters and I'm sure
That it will be a long time healing
It's so hard to see what I'm doing this for
When loneliness is all that I'm feeling
Stole my time  all my time
Spend my time for you
Now the wind it is blowing
Blowing leaves from the trees
I've got no use knowing
That with time it will ease
I don't know where I'm going
Hope I get there soon
Cause my soul is hollow as the sorrowful moon
Na    na    na    na
Na    na    na    na
Now the wind it is blowing
Blowing leaves from the trees
I've got no use knowing that with time it will ease
I don't know where I'm going
Hope I get there soon
Cause my soul is hollow as the sorrowful moon
Cause my soul is hollow as the sorrowful moon
Na    na    na    na
Na
The night is raining on my weary head
Taking me back
See the sun spread its wings of gold
As the dawn unfurls
Hear the song that the moon sings
To the darkened world
Feel the fire lighting in the bitter cold
See the light that shines through
The windows of your soul
The windows of your soul
Na
The windows of your soul
The windows of your soul
Na
