The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter Lyrics

The muscle and bone
They encase my heart, but never touch my soul
As I'll save that for water and it's shore
Fear makes friends with joyAnd I'll march slowly and I'll never forget
How the music stopped or the feel of your breath
And I'll march slowly and I'll never forget
How the music stopped or the feel of your breathAnd I'll march slowly and I'll never forget
How the music stopped or the feel of your breath
And I'll march slowly and I'll never forget
How the music stopped or the feel of your breathThe flesh and the blood
They keep my body warm, but still my mind is cold
To know what's fair is not always fair
What proves real will never fleeAnd I'll march slowly and I'll never forget
How that black dress fell upon your white neck
Grand isle rests quiet this time of year
And I know you will be leaving soon my dear
