Bluehorses - Common Ground lyrics

Been so slowly coming, you're the only one to see Only you can know that, The breeze was never free Look over my shoulder, As you take me by the hand Let you lead me through the streets of love, Show me the Promised Land Hounds of Winter stealing, Past the hedgerows as they wind Along the secret pathways To the back door of your mind Rattling your senses, Like an ice pick chandelier Huddle in your feathered cloak, There goes another year There's a blizzard falling, Make no sound There's a blizzard, On the common ground Keep the martyr burning, Keep the scapegoat in your sight Throw your dice into the wind, Your gremlins to the night No smoke without fire, And there's no fire without blame, An ill wind blows that brings no good, The lie that fans the flame
