All That Hammering Lyrics - Singles - Mary Black

I used to think joy, was the break between sorrow, 

Like peace was the break between wars, 

I'm still partly new now, but mostly older, 

And I can not say I'm so sure. 

CHORUS 

I never trusted happiness, as far as I could throw it, 

Always preparing for the worst, 'cause I would know it, 

All of that hammering in the dark, like a new Noah working on his ark, 

On his ark.

I may look back at today and feel foolish, 

My old view was right all along, 

I will rush in, where no angels are walking, 

And fight for the right to be wrong. 

CHORUS 

'Cause I never trusted happiness, as far as I could throw it, 

Always preparing for the worst, 'cause I would know it, 

of that hammering in the dark, like a new Noah working on his ark, 

On his ark.

Between my potential and the deep blue sea, 

There's a rock and a diamond either side of me, 

Between our potential and the break of day, 

There is nothing at all in our way, 

Nothing in our way.
