Lyrics

I can't explain it but there's something here that's not right
No need to worry--there's nothing you can do
To shade me from the truth

Don't need another dose of sympathy or insight
The sky is falling--the walls are closing in
I'm jumping out of my skin

But there's a crack in the roof
Where the sun comes through
It's a window that erases all the gloom
Just a crack in the roof
A passage to the sky of blue
In the quiet desparation of the dawn
A lonely heart is moved

The fear is washing over me and I might drown
I need a cover, a shelter from the storm
A place where hope reforms
Still I can't think of any kind of reason to back down
I'm up against it
No matter what I choose
There's nothing left to lose

Then a crack in the roof
Brings the sunlight through
It's a window that erases all the gloom
Just a crack in the roof
A passage to the sky of blue
In the quiet desperation of the dawn
A lonely heart is moved
