Tremble - Peter Himmelman
Oh the time it ran right through us
like the roar of a midnight train
though we scorned...it made us sane
held us prisoner --
and we prayed
when you left us, yes, but only for a while
our minds, so like a childs
grew impatient with the waiting...
and I...
tremble, tremble, tremble
with the thought of you
I tremble, tremble, tremble
when I hear your name
I tremble, tremble, tremble
at your face above my bed
lord there's nothing to be said
to ease the pain
now the days are so much colder
and a laugh somehow more rare
and the things that made us care
well they've changed a bit
when I wake in the morning
and my reflection looks so pained
god I know there's nothing gained
if you don't get hurt a little
and I still...
tremble, tremble, tremble
with the thought of you
I tremble, tremble, tremble
when I hear your name
I tremble, tremble, tremble
at your face above my bed
lord there's nothing to be said
to ease the pain
now the strong they find a meaning
or at least set out to try
while the weak they wait to die
just rewards and all
they say with every good catastrophe
there's a lesson to be learned
a wisdom that gets earned
but for now that's just far away
and I still...
tremble, tremble, tremble
with the thought of you
I tremble, tremble, tremble
when I hear your name
I tremble, tremble, tremble
at your face above my bed
lord there's nothing to be said
to ease the pain
