about

This song was recorded live at a 'Strings Attached' concert.

lyrics

A pawn to one day be a queen
Chasing distant treasures
To bring diamonds
To a house of gold

Blinded by her diamond eyes
Bounded by the chasing life
She never saw what she had

In her younger days she would believe
In the crazy places hearts can lead
But now second guesses why

Live while you can
Win or loss
The same
The ebb and flows
Will come and go
It’s how your heart remains
Live while you can

Now the wind has changed
The rain washes grey
And the sun lights up the ground
She finds her way
Through the rubble
Understands why the trouble
Crashed her walls on down
So she could see
