===========================================
Across The Street From Brokenhearted  
===========================================

In 1908 some men took off for the South Pole
No guarantee they'd ever make it back home
On a wing and a prayer with this crazy idea that
If they succeeded against all odds it'd be worth it
But as luck would have it things went bad from the get go
It was an early winter that year and they got caught in an ice floe
And they were stuck there
At the bottom of the world with
No way home
No way home
No way home
 
As for me I thought my heart was locked up forever
Thought I'd done what needed to be done
I thought I was so clever
But you dug it up and took it home with you
And brought it back to breathing
You said this is what I do
 
Now here I am and there you are
And here we stand underneath the light of these stars that
Came from so far away and so long ago
From someplace that we'll never know
And we've come so far and it's been so long
I want to hold you just to keep you warm
And even though we're so far from where we started
We're still across the street from brokenhearted
 
You took me by the hand and said follow me
You took me down into an endless sea
When the monsters passed us in the dark
All I heard was the beating of our hearts
We passed the wolves den
We saw the bones there on the ground
We passed through the dark alleys all alone on the outskirts of town
We made a fire to keep us warm
The rain kept coming
Rain kept coming down
 
Now here I am and there you are
And here we stand underneath the light of these stars that
Came from so far away and so long ago
From someplace that we'll never know
And we've come so far and it's been so long
I want to hold you just to keep you warm
And even though we're so far from where we started
We're still across the street from brokenhearted
 
When dreams die they stop breathing
The clouds cover the sky and the oceans are seething
With despair everywhere you turn
The city's on fire the trees burn
Men in the distance were closing in
And you keep telling me again
You wanna find your way back
Find your way back
Oh I hope you can
Find your way back
Find your way back
Even if there's no way home again
