Wendy Wall - The Proving Ground lyrics

The sun went down again today I feel pretty good, 'cause I took it in stride I know it's coming back again I'd like to catch my breath but my hands are tied You think it's easy being human When the world knows what it's doing It goes round and round and round and round and round Well I just came in for a landing And I'm trying to get a hand in While I'm standing here on the proving ground I lived inside a wishing well It swallowed me, did you hear me call? The sun went down day after day She gave the light to the moon such a graceless fall It was all so cloak and dagger I was looking pretty haggard Turning round and round and round and round and round But I climbed out for a reason This has got to be my season 'Cause I'm standing here on the proving ground [ bridge ] The sun went down again today You feel pretty good, you can close your eyes She went down in a fire blaze Signed her name in the haze like she owned the sky And the world's not young and tender But see how it surrenders It goes round and round and round and round and round And the light becomes a crescent And the moon gives you his blessing 'Cause you're standing here on the proving ground Standing here on the proving ground Standing here on the proving ground All lyrics copyright Wendy Wall All Rights reserved
