Tread This World So Lightly Lyrics by Kim Fox

Return to Planet Earth

0

Oh, dear departed, my brokenhearted
Somehow it feels like I've been wronged
Because forever floats like a feather
And when I leave, this world goes on
Wish I could cut it, cut it right open
And push my heart into the knife
So I could feel it and never seal it
This pain of life, however slight
Because I tread this world so lightly
I'm disappearing here in the dark
Oh, how I tread this world so lightly
Close your eyes now and I'll be gone
I took a lover and then another
Yes, any lover, he would do
Makes me feel pretty, purr like a kitty
And wave goodbye when we are through
But I keep humming, humming you home now
That I might sing you off to sleep
But when you wake up, it was just the makeup
It never really went too deep
Because I tread this world so lightly
I'm disappearing here in the dark
Oh, how I tread this world so lightly
Close your eyes now and I'll be gone
Teach me how to be loved
Teach me how I can stay
Teach me how I can love
So that I won't fade away
Oh, dear departed, my brokenhearted
I am afraid, I am afraid
I carry rocks here to make me heavy
Or with the wind, I'll blow away
Because I tread this world so lightly
I'm disappearing here in the dark
Oh, how I tread this world so lightly
Close your eyes now and I'll be gone
