How's the Heart?

Lyrics

We see a mother with no child
 We meet a stranger poor, exiled
 How's the heart while it still beats?
 Asks a no one
 Another John Doe
 Sorrow hides well in your shell
 A fellow man with hurt to spare
 Dear one, here I am to share the fear
 An act of kindness
 Without an amen
 How's the heart
 Underneath the silence?
 How's the one
 Drowning in the mire?
 Let us sound a human paean
 Come in, the fire's warm
 Burn the rope and dance some more
 ♪
 We met where the cliff greets the sea
 Shared a story, took the leap
 Rose up rooted, hid a note
 You know where
 You've been there
 Now there's one who came from me
 A child of light, another tale
 Dear one
 Night will come but not to stay
 Oh, why?
 The answer's in the
 How's the heart
 Underneath the silence?
 How's the one
 Drowning in the mire?
 Let us sound a human paean
 Come in, the fire's warm
 Burn the rope and dance some more
 Fair winds, my love
 Fly towards the calm
 Fly utterly lost
 Towards a beating heart
 A beating heart
 How is that heart
 Underneath the silence?
 How is the one
 Drowning in the mire?
 Let us sound a human paean
 Come on in, the fire's warm
 
 How is that heart
 Underneath the silence?
 How's the one
 Drowning in the mire?
 Let us sound a human paean
 Come on in, the fire's warm
 How's that heart
 Underneath the silence?
 How's the one
 Drowning in the mire?
 Let us sound a human paean
 Come on in
 How's that heart
 Underneath the silence?
 How's the one
 Drowning in the mire?
 Let us sound a human paean
 Come on in, the fire's warm
 Dull the blade and dance some more
 How's that heart?
 How's the one
 Drowning in the mire?
 Let us sound a human paean
 Come on in, the fire's warm
 Dull the blade and dance some more
 How's that heart
 Underneath the silence?
 How's the one
 Drowning in the mire?
 Let us sound a human paean
 Come in, the fire's warm
 Burn the rope and dance some more
