Weathered Wall Lyrics - Brilliant Trees - David Sylvian

You were someone to believe in 

A place for hope in a changing world 

Feeling every moment 

Every one of the years spent in your arms 

After a lifetime of living 

These soiled hands show no life at all 

Working at all hours 

Never facing the fears here in my heart 

Grieving for the loss of heaven 

Weeping for the loss of heaven 

By the wailing wall 

You were someone to believe in 

Giving life where there was a will to learn 

But it's the nature of living 

To count only the years left in your heart
