lyrics

Out of the fire and now I'm just freezin',
and Love conquers all, and it's conquered my reason.
Don't know if I'm goin', or comin' or leavin'.
It's too late to stop now, too fast to slow down,
and these old boots have carried me miles,
but I've worn out the soles.
Lord, I've worn out this soul.
Mercy!
Have mercy on me.

In from the cold and I'll wait out the winter.
If Love is a flame, then I'm burned to a cinder.
Don't know if I'll stay, not sure if I'm welcome.
I'm too close to home now, too loose to hold down,
and these old boots keep carryin' me on,
but I've worn out the soles.
Lord, I've worn out this soul.
Mercy!
Have mercy on me.

Mercy!
Have mercy on me.

Psychedelic Rock reminiscent of early Catherine Wheel and Ride - not a bad thing. Quality musicianship and great use of spoken word sample on You Had It All - possibly Terence McKenna? Update - sample is Alan Watts - thanks to the Angry Arab for putting me right! RIYL Superfjord, Sundial circa 'Other Way Out' and the above. The Socialist Birder
