Jackson Browne - The Fuse lyrics

It is coming from so far away
It is hard to say for sure
Whether what I hear is music or the wind
Through an open door
Theres a fire high in the empty sky
Where the sound meets the shore
Theres a long distance loneliness
Rolling out over the desert floor

And the yeahrs that I spent lost in the mystery
Fall away leaving only the sound of the drum
Like a part of me
It speaks to the heart of me
Forget what life used to be
You´re what you choose to be
It is whatever it´s you see
That life will become

Whatever it´s you might think you´ve
You´ve nothing to lose
Through every dead & living thing
Time runs like a fuse
And the fuse is burning
And the earth is turning

Though the yeahrs give way to uncertain´ty
And the fear of living for nothing strangles the´ll
Theres a part of me
That speaks to the heart of me
Though sometimes it is hard to see
It is never far from me
Alive in eternity
That nothing can kill

Oh Lord
Are there really people starving suntil?
Look out beyond the walls of Babylon
How long will their needs go unfilled
I wanna say right now I am gonna be around
I am gonna be around
When the walls & towers are crumbling
When the towers are tumbling down
And I´ll tune my spirit to the gentle sound
I wanna hear the sound
Of the waters lapping on a higher ground
Of the children laughing
