Out where the stones lay like bones by the ocean
|
||
|
Out where the waves crash contempt on the land
|
||
|
Someone was trembling for fear of the tempest
|
||
|
Somebody silently reached for their hand
|
||
|
|
||
|
Said, "Understand that if you're cold, I'll keep you warm
|
||
|
And besides, there's so much beauty in a storm
|
||
|
So come down with me to the shore
|
||
|
And what's more? I adore you
|
||
|
|
||
|
So tell me, what is there to fear?
|
||
|
You think some seraph up above
|
||
|
Is trying to rob us of our love
|
||
|
Because the sky's not clear?
|
||
|
My dear, you know there's not
|
||
|
Now, listen to the rain upon the rooftop"
|
||
|
|
||
|
But the wind picked up
|
||
|
|
||
|
Out where the stones stand up like thrones beside the ocean
|
||
|
Out where the waves make a grave of the sea
|
||
|
The lovers struggled in the middle of the tempest
|
||
|
And water angrily crawled up onto the beach
|
||
|
|
||
|
Said, "Hold my hand, and stay with me, we'll be released"
|
||
|
But the tide clung like an anchor to her feet
|
||
|
And though he tried to make the water line recede
|
||
|
It pulled her out into the sea
|
||
|
|
||
|
He could not break apart the waves
|
||
|
To bring her safely back in
|
||
|
He watched her hand break through the surface once
|
||
|
Then disappear again
|
||
|
|
||
|
Forever wait inside the sea for me
|
||
|
My dear, I hear you
|
||
|
You speak in every curling wave
|
||
|
And sing in every violent breeze
|
||
|
Someday not far away from here
|
||
|
My dear, I swear I'll see you
|
||
|
And we will hear the seraphs cry
|
||
|
They will still envy you and I
|
||
|
|
||
|
How they envied you and I
|
||
|
How they envied you and I
|
||
|
How they envied you and I
|
||
|
|
||
|
