Sapling Lyrics


Foy Vance Sapling

[Verse 1]
I remember way back when
I felt only ennui
Like nothing could complete me
No promise of a rising sun
Illuminating everyone
The very thought defeated
My life was a blinding light
Must be what it's like when worlds collide
Especially when he sees her
Pretty soon, he'll tease her
I was on the road too long
My laboured lover, only song
Not one of them a keeper

[Chorus]
But if I woke in the morning to find you werе gone
I know I'd try and find the will to be strong
But am I strong еnough?
Am I strong enough?
I once built a bower, I could build you a home
Together forever, but forever and on is still not long enough
It's still not long enough

[Verse 2]
I know the fear was in your eyes
And I could see myself as a child
Such a devastating feeling
I wished I could go back in time
But all I could do was apologise
Right then, your eyes were healing
Healing

[Chorus]
Oh, if I woke in the morning to find you were gone
I know I'd try and find the will to be strong
But am I strong enough?
Am I strong enough?
I once built a bower, I could build you a home
Together forever, but forever and on is still not long enough
It's still not long enough

[Bridge]
Oh, I've been Cain, but I wanna be Abel
Been a drunken fool
But I wanted to be stable enough to lay every one of my cards on the table
Hope it's not too late for us to find a way to

[Chorus]
If I woke in the morning to find you were gone
I know I'd try and find the will to be strong
But am I strong enough?
Am I strong enough?
I once built a bower, I could build you a home
Together forever, but forever and on is still not long enough
It's still not long enough

[Outro]
I went looking inside myself for a home
Found only a sapling in search of an oak
But it's a start, my love
Oh, it's a start, my love
But am I strong enough?
