Dead Oceans - There's No Leaving Now lyrics

When there's no one here in the tryouts Who will live through your first day's trial Of confusion when your faint and crooked smile Had to leave When you're painted like a warrior Though you know it's a raining war When the first who spoke, but wasn't really sure Was your heart Your fear of the leading light If they are with you and your heart won't fail To see through a fearless eye And know that danger finally goes away Still you're trying But there's no leaving now And With your quiet damn devotion To be lost like your child again Claim forever is a close and honest friend To your ways Will there be time to harvest rivers That for so long refused to grow All the little things you need to build a home For your love Your fear of the leading light If they are with you and your heart won't fail To see through a fearless eye And know that danger finally goes away Still you're trying But there's no leaving now
