I'm up here worrying about my man
Asking stars to appear
I'm up here waiting for answers
For the summer blues to clear
His was a story of war that night
And the silence smothered his speech
Well his wounds came out
And knocked the wind out of me
Broke my heart and knocked the wind out of me

And I'm still trying
I swear I’ve been through this once or twice
And I'm still trying
My heart is doing the driving
I'm still trying
I'm telling us all to pray
I'm still trying
I see the light
I'm still trying
Till we’re free

We lay down with our heads connected
Watched our bodies decay
We came back reborn and ready to face that glorious day
We saw things in the sky that night that I have no words to explain
Fill our bones with smoke and push out all the pain
