Fragile (With Jesse Cook)
Holly Cole · Other Songs - Holly Cole
Blood would flow.
Flesh and steel are one.
Drying in the color of the evening sun.
Tomorrows rain will wash the stains away.
Something in our minds will always stay.
On and on
The rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on
The rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
Perhaps this final light was meant
To clench a lifetimes arguement.
But nothing comes from violence
And nothing ever could.
All those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are.
On and on
The rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on
The rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
On and on
The rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on
The rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
Flesh and steel are one.
Drying in the color of the evening sun.
Tomorrows rain will wash the stains away.
Something in our minds will always stay.
On and on
The rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on
The rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
Perhaps this final light was meant
To clench a lifetimes arguement.
But nothing comes from violence
And nothing ever could.
All those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are.
On and on
The rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on
The rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
On and on
The rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on
The rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
