You and I did sprout like a planted love,

So deep in the ground that it grows on forever,

So that everyone can feel it.

And then bugs will come to fill up on our sweet blood,

To chew off the bark that shields us,

But we'll keep on growing towards the sun.

Nothing on this world could ever break us apart,

And when they finally kill the lights,

On the last day that we ever close our eyes.

For centuries we burned at the stake,

No, I've seen through the end,

I've seen your hand holding my hand,

And we know that we have given this world everything that we can.

And a cold north wind is gonna blow on that day,

All the stars in the sky are going to flicker once and die,
G D G
On the last day that we ever close our eyes.
