No Wonder Lyrics - Singles - Peter Mulvey

Are these your arms across your chest? 

Is that your face turned from me? 

Are these your legs drawn between us? 

Is this you? 

No wonder 

Is this my voice, pleading, broken, bitter? 

Is this my mouth filled with sand? 

Are these my hands inert and heavy? 

Is this me? 

No wonder 

I have never been here before 

I had no idea 

The chill you seem to know your way around 

With a white-knuckle grip on the center of your soul 

I have the same grip on your heart 

Sometimes when the words fail 

And the silence bleeds into the snow 

I wonder 

I wonder which of us will be the first to let go 

Which of us will be the first to let go 

And I say listen to the rain 

listen to the fall 

listen to the voice 

listen to the trees 

listen to the call 

listen to the sun 

listen to the wind 

listen to the way 

listen to the dream 

The shout's begun to whisper 

Listen to me, listen to me, listen to your heart 

The truth is speaking softly there 

And I am almost beyond caring 

And I can only breathe 

And I can only watch you be yourself 

And you can only do the same 

No wonder... 

No wonder... 

No wonder.
