My only constant, you are the tide that I cannot control.
You draw me in and wash me out until I can't find home.
And when I call, in the silence lies a reply.
The echo falls again and again the burden multiplies.
It's in the stillness, it's in our breathing in,
And in the stillness, it's in our breathing out
We are without.
In the cold, in the dark, in the night, my love,
We learn to fight, my love,
To make it light, my love.
When I'm caught in the dark of your night, my love,
I can't see right, my love,
Please let go.
Please let go.
Some are born to sweet delight,
Some are born to endless night.
High on a rooftop, I felt the sun rise from a darkened cry.
And from my tightrope I saw the smoke rise as I felt goodbye.
And no-one called: in the silence the race was won.
As we unfold, it's not in the storms that we become undone,
It's in the stillness, it's in our breathing in,
And in the stillness, it's in our breathing out
We are without.
In the cold, in the dark, in the night, my love,
We learn to fight, my love,
To make it light, my love.
When I'm caught in the dark of your night, my love,
I can't see right, my love,
Please let go.
In the cold, in the dark, in the night, my love,
We learn to fight, my love,
To make it light, my love.
When I'm caught in the dark of your night, my love,
I can't see right, my love,
Please let go.
Please let go.
Some are born to sweet delight,
Some are born to endless night.
High on a rooftop, I felt the sun rise from a darkened cry.
