Lyrics
Ah & Awe
©Jeffrey C. Ashbaker 7-2014

One baby's crying and one baby's dying
While two mothers suffer the pain
Three words were spoken, but four hearts are broken
And everyone's shifting the blame
Why don't you tell me another sad story
While you load up your gun and take aim

--- Chorus #1 ---
Ah... ah, ah, ah...ah, ah, ah...ah, ah, ah
Ah... sing & sigh, laugh & cry, live & die
Ah and Awe
-----------------
This one has shaken me, left a heartache in me
I know it's breaking me down
All of this madness in all of this sadness
While I'm stuck on this merry-go-round
Why must the first sign of light be the shadows
That pass through the darkness unfound

--- Chorus #1 ---
Ah... ah, ah, ah...ah, ah, ah...ah, ah, ah
Ah... give & take, love & hate, doubt & faith
Ah and Awe
---------------------
Strange things can happen when someone is trapped in the
Blindness that comes with despair
When you're so sure you know, life has no where to go
All the same things will always be there
Open your mind, yeah, I'm sure you will find
That the signs will appear everywhere

--- Chorus #1 ---
Ah... sing & sigh, laugh & cry, live & die
Ah... give & take, love & hate, doubt & faith
Ah and Awe x 3
