Touching The Ground
Brandi Carlile · Give Up the Ghost [2009]
I swear when we touched, I saw heaven in your eyes
And jewel studded clouds floating in your skies
Seas of blue and fields of green
Lookin' like you fell out of someone's dreams
Why, do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why, must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
You could sing an army of angels to sleep
With songs that could cause the devil to weep
You hold me so sweet when the day is done
Enough to make you wonder where we all came from
Why, do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why, must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
A heartache can be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
And now those eyes are filling with rain
Bringing me misery, giving me pain
Curse these shackles that you put on me
And blessed by the day when you set me free
Why, do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why, must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
And jewel studded clouds floating in your skies
Seas of blue and fields of green
Lookin' like you fell out of someone's dreams
Why, do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why, must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
You could sing an army of angels to sleep
With songs that could cause the devil to weep
You hold me so sweet when the day is done
Enough to make you wonder where we all came from
Why, do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why, must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
A heartache can be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
And now those eyes are filling with rain
Bringing me misery, giving me pain
Curse these shackles that you put on me
And blessed by the day when you set me free
Why, do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why, must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
