Hosea`s Wife (Demo Ver) - Brooke Fraser
I just spoke silence with the
seeker next to me
She had a heart with hesitant
halting speech
That turned to mine and asked
belligerently
What do I live for
I see the scars of searches
everywhere I go
From hearts to wars to
literature to radio
There's a question like a shame
no one will show
What do I live for
We are Hosea's wife
We are squandering this life
Using people like ladders and
words like knives
If we've eyes to see
If we've ears to hear
To find it in our hearts and
mouths
The word that saves is near
Shed that shallow skin
Come and live again
Leave all you were before
To believe is to begin
There is truth in little corners
of our lives
There are hints of it in songs
and children's eyes
It's familiar like an ancient
lullaby
What do I live for
We are Hosea's wife
We are squandering this life
Using bodies like money and
truth like lies
If we've eyes to see
If we've ears to hear
To find it in our hearts and
mouths
The word that saves is near
Shed that shallow skin
Come and live again
Leave all you were before
To believe is to begin
We are more than dust
That means something
That means something
We are more than just
Blood and emotions
Inklings and notions
Atoms on oceans
We are Hosea's wife
We are squandering this life
Using bodies like money and
truth like lies
If we've eyes to see
If we've ears to hear
To find it in our hearts and
mouths
The word that saves is near
Shed that shallow skin
Come and live again
Leave all you were before
To believe is to begin
If we've eyes to see
If we've ears to hear
To find it in our hearts and
mouths
The word that saves is near
Shed that shallow skin
Come and live again
Leave all you were before
To believe is to begin
To believe is to begin
To believe is to begin
To believe is to begin
To believe is to begin
