lirik lagu carrie newcomer – the plumb line
[verse 1]
it’s a world of light and a world of mist
the place we fell and the way we kissed
what i saw and all i missed
voices howl and voices sing
in a landscape filled with broken things
in the troubled water and rising wings
[chorus]
i didn’t know that i could be this blind
i didn’t plan to live in these trouble times
but here i am, here i am
holding on to the plumb line
[verse 2]
sometimes you hunt the bear, sometimes the bear hunts you
sometimes you’re the foot, other times thе shoe
some days the only way out is through
thеre’s a tree in the center of each acorn
there’s a quiet place in every raging storm
something ending and being born
[chorus]
i didn’t know that i could be this blind
i didn’t plan to live in these trouble times
but here i am, here i am
holding on to the plumb line
[instrumental]
[bridge]
i don’t know why some fall so hard
why some questions go unspoken
why some hearts shatter into shards
and others break open, open
[verse 3]
i can drive and you can read the map
on the long quiet road called there and back
in every mended thing there was once a crack
it’s a world of rain and a world of stone
i’ll rest in all that i still don’t know
what i’ll embrace and i’ll let go
[chorus]
i didn’t know that i could be this blind
i didn’t plan to live in these trouble times
but here i am, here i am
holding on to the plumb line
