Holding Back An Ocean - Dee Carstensen/Marc Shulman/Tony Levin

I believe I'm holding back an ocean

All the world depends on only this

If I allow just one more tear to spill

The earth will drown in sadness

I behold the beauty and the madness

The combination takes me by surprise

Like loving you and losing you in one lifetime

The tears that make you wise

And how I feel the weight on me

I need to set it down

For in the gush of overflow

Our hearts will surely drown

Must I hide from the mouths of hunger

Turn away from the asking hand

Shut my ears to heaven's thunder

Still my heart to the woe of man

I should be fearful of what lies beneath me

My vision and my touch disguise it's depth

But when this sea of madness overcomes us

Our hearts will be at rest

And how I feel the weight on me

I need to set it down

Must I forever guard the gate

And see it's chains stay bound

Must I hide from the mouths of hunger

Turn away from the asking hand

Shut my ears to heaven's thunder

Still my heart to the woe of man

Must I run from the shouts of anger

Play the fool to the preachers hope

Wipe away all I can remember

Still my heart to the hangmans rope

Must I hide from the mouths of hunger

Turn away from the asking hand

Shut my ears to heaven's thunder

Still my heart to the woe of man

I believe I'm holding back an ocean

All the world depends on only this

If I allow just one more tear to spill

The earth will drown in sadness
