Isabel

[Produced By Alex Newport] [Verse 1] So now the years are rolling by And it's not long since you and I could have been train drivers and astronauts And now we're stuck in furnished ruts But yet the thing that really cuts is that we can't remember how we got caught Filtered air, computer screens, muffled sighs and might-have-beens Count your blessings, then breathe, and count to ten And though it doesn't often show, we are scared Because we know our forefathers were farmers and fishermen [Chorus] And so the world has changed, worse or betters hard to tell But my hope remains within the arms of Isabel [Verse 2] So now our calloused hands once told A story honest as its old of sowing seeds and setting sail But now our hands are soft and weak And working seven days a week at these salvation schemes That are bound to fail [Chorus] [Bridge] And I'll admit that I am scared of what I don't understand Darling, if you're there, gentle voice and soothing hands To quiet my despair To shore up all my plans Darling, if you're there... [Outro] And so the world has changed, and I must change as well The machines we've made will damn us into hell So the time will come when all must save themselves And I will save my soul in the arms of Isabel
