But the Days and Nights Are Long Lyrics

But the Days and Nights Are Long (formerly known as: Boulder Hotel Room)
* Cheryl Wheeler

* Life is short, but the days and nights are long
* Time will heal all these wounds
* Some day soon
* I'll be rising I'll be strong
* But now I'm loosing all my battles
* Now I'm down and dropping still
* And this snow's blowing through

* Like some ghost
* With this blue I know too well
* Broken hearts keep on beating just the same
* So I guess I can too
* Go through these moves
* Facing forward, walking straight
* But now my glance keeps drifting downward
* Now my feet can't find their way
* And this cold's creeping in
* Through my bones
* Whisperin it's here to stay
* I'll bide my time, like there's any other way
* It moves too slow, moves too fast
* It's gone and past
* And stopped entirely today
* I know there's light on some horizon
* But I can't see so far ahead
* Patience and grace, blessed is love
* I'm loosin my faith
* In most of that stuff those wise men said
