Peter Brunone - Scarlet Thread Lyrics

Lie down in peace, my dear
Fear no evil thing
Though the chill wind through your heart demands control
Your rising up and falling down
Amid the waves that seek to drown your hope
Can never hide you from the one
Who'll never rest until you're whole

'Cause nothing you could ever do
Could ever sway my love for you
My blood runs through your veins
And you can never change that
So when you feel those walls around you
Crack and tumble to the ground, oh
Hold on to that scarlet thread
Forever reaching to your heart from mine
And have no fear
Your heart is bound to mine

You've been so brave so long
And you've been so afraid
That at last you'll find you've always been alone
But here I am and here I'll stay
And I would not cast you away, my child
You're always in my sight and I
Will always carry you back home

And nothing you could ever do
Could ever sway my love for you
My blood runs through your veins
And there's no way to change that
So when you feel those walls around you
Crack and tumble to the ground, oh
Hold on to that scarlet thread
Forever reaching to your heart from mine
And have no fear
Your heart is bound to mine

I'd stop at nothing to find you
So do you think that even if you tried
You could ever change my mind?

When nothing you could ever do
Could ever sway my love for you
My blood runs through your veins
And that will never change
So when you feel those walls around you
Crack and tumble to the ground, oh
Hold on to that scarlet thread
Forever reaching to your heart from mine
And have no fear
Your heart is bound to mine

Don't be afraid
