Ailsa Lyrics - Singles - Dave Fidler

Your face suddenly aged 

When you heard the news that day 

I found you standing in the dark 

Before you try to break my heart 

You know I see you, what's been and gone 

I'm sure he sees you and cheers you on 

We all need you to pull through this one 

What I'm trying to say... 

You've been fighting for so long 

You jumped the gun 

And now dreams don't ring so sweet in your ears 

Crippled by fear 

And it pours out your mouth while you scream and you shout 

That your trading is done for the day 

And it rolls of your tongue like a funeral song 

And still rings when the procession's long gone 

The walls you built around your heart 

That precious treasure map of scars 

And the charade they made of it 

Came crashing down it didn't hurt a bit 

You know I see you, and all that you are 

I understand you, the hand that was drawn 

Can't protect you when you're in the storm 

And you push away... 

You've been fighting for so long 

You jumped the gun 

And now dreams don't ring so sweet in your ears 

Crippled by fear 

And it pours out your mouth while you scream and you shout 

That your trading is done for the day 

And it rolls of your tongue like a funeral song 

And still rings when the procession's long gone
