Lyrics The Joy Formidable

The Joy Formidable

Don't Let Me Know

I had a feeling

The light was over

I wandered freely

From your memory

Please forgive me

A new beginning

It was wide and empty

Just like you told me

Don't let me know

Hen you are gone

When the day it comes

Don't let me know

Like the river a piece washed away

The breathing mountains

Swirled my body

It's hard to live right

Hard to die free

I stole a memory

But I kept it with me

Don't let me know

When you are gone

When this day is worn

Don't let me know

I walked behind you

My hands were heavy

I reached the ridge

Where you jumped to find me

We were diving through dreamless waters

I feel no history, this moment only

Don't let me know when you are gone

Just let me dream

Just let me dream

Now every empty word I said

Hangs here around my neck

Wondered if I could ever go on

Without you here inside the song

But the cruel wind that took the howl from you

Is alive in the sound I know

(It says) take these tears I'll be back one day

If you promise not to waste your stay

Forget what you knew before

Remember here, right now, forever

And don't let me go, just let me dream
