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 joy
And 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 breath
And 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 breath
The 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 flee
And 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
