Songtext von Fragile

I look out on these shields of heather Across the countryside I wonder how they've grown together While people live such separate lives I think I'll stay inside for the winter Cuz the weather's in my bones And this wind could shatter bone to splinter Then howl me back home I'm fragile as the lady of the harbor As fragile as her torch that glows As fragile as these gulf stream waters To the Texas coast to the Texas coast I stared up athe faces in the mountain Just a year ago Laughin' in the spirit of America And singin' in the snow Now I wish I felt as strong as that mountain Just carved in stone I wish I was the gulf stream water And I could sail you home I would give you all that's in me Though part of me is gone If I could have that day upon the mountain For the snow and the song But here's to love and all that it changes When you're alone out in that storm If I'd had a shield of heather I'd have never loved at all I would sail you home To your Texas coast I would sail you home To the Texas coast
