Uncover My Eyes - Piers Faccini

Now I’ve been running still

Counting down the breaths

Trying not to cheat on Time

While pushing back the clock

I’ve seen the sails blowing at half mast

As the storm began to rise

I’ve heard the echo of the bells

Round the valleys and the hills

Sing Heart sing

Sing Heart sing

A river flows in my veins

Crowds were gathered at the water’s edge

While in each face and hand

A million stories there to tell

A tale for every man

I’ve heard all the answers

But none to fit the question

Is there a way to silence?

There’s the revelation

Sing Heart sing

Sing Heart sing

A river flows in my veins

Throughout the span of years

The spinning web is made

The turning looms are weaving

A veil for the world

I’d keep my eyes closed if I could

I’d black out the day

But I’ve been waking into a dream

Dead and born again

Sing Heart sing

Sing Heart sing

A river flows in my veins

The blood runs down like rain
