Nether Springs

Could we have a day without our phones? Could we have a day without the ping, ping of its tone? Let's cut the 3G out Let's leave this busy tonight out here tonight Come outside the day is done There's no more games left to be won No more chasing evening deadlines You know it's out of mind, when it's out of sight I've heard about a place that takes you as you are Speaks kindly to your troubles and holds your heavy heart The silence and the solitude awaits when you arrive The deepest part of you will cry If only for a moment, we could feel alive Beneath our skin, where it all sinks in If only we'd remember who we are A city boy have I become Never lived my rhythms by the setting of the sun Don't know the birds that pass me by Can't name the stars above the sky to my shame, to my shame Do you know the place that takes you as you are Speaks kindly to your troubles and holds your heavy heart The silence and the solitude awaits when you arrive The deepest part of you will cry If only for a moment, we could feel alive Beneath our skin, where it all sinks in If only we'd remember who we are Do you know the place that takes you as you are Speaks kindly to your troubles and holds your heavy heart The silence and the solitude awaits when you arrive The deepest part of you will cry If only for a moment, we could feel alive Beneath our skin, where it all sinks in If you and I'd remember who we are
