I hear a sound, a sound above my head
Distant sound of thunder, booming out on the moor

Blackbirds they flew ahead
into the cooling towers
I packed my bags fast thinking
one of those hours with you
Waiting for you

My God it takes an ocean of trust
In the kingdom of rust

I longed to feel some beauty in my heart
As I go searching right to the start

The road back to Preston was covered all in snow
So I went looking
for that stolen heart
for you waiting for you

My God it takes an ocean of trust, it takes an effort it does
My God it takes an ocean of trust
It’s in the kingdom of rust
Oh, in the kingdom of rust

I longed to feel that winter in my heart
So I went looking
But I couldn’t stop
Now I’m waiting for you

I know it takes an ocean of trust
In the kingdom of rust
