Soft as a heartbeat or a whisper light as the rain
You got me sinking now the city will fade
I'm on fire in an ice box fire in an ice box
Been running 20 long years but I've only come three blocks
Now that I'm crossing that old river
Just to get the stains off of my soul
Heaviest load I ever shed darling
My cargo is the burden of love
Soft as a heartbeat or a whisper light as the rain
You got me sinking now the city fades
I'm I headed for a roadblock I'm headed for a roadblock
I'm running so fast I can hardly stop
Now that I'm crossing that old river
Just to get the stains off of my soul
Heaviest load I ever shed darling
My cargo is the burden of love
Running so fast Running non-stop
I'm running so fast My cargo is the burden of love
