The Waking Hour Songtext
von Gnoss

And I wake to the radio morning news
Just as the day is dawning
And I watch from the window as a passing cloud
Dulls a hopeful morning
And I wonder, will the girl I love
Come back with the mourning?
But the omen crow at the waking hour
Has given me fair warning

And the heart that′s breaking never makes a sound
And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound


And she was once my heart′s delight
My need and my desire
She was my love, she was my light
My water and my fire
And I was once the same to her
When we both walked together
The heavy heart at the waking hour
Predicted heavy weather

And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound
And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound

′Cause I know love, I′ve seen love's face
And I understand its sorrows
And for every love I′ve ever had
Has always meant tomorrow
Though I am Wednesday's child, woe
I try not to ungrateful
But I was born in midnight black
With a heart than can be hateful

And the heart that′s breaking never makes a sound
And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound

Oh, and the heart that′s breaking never makes a sound
And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound
