Your eyes, they are still dripping
Your sorrows, like stormy waters, rise
Deep blue and green, I find you
While waiting for a parting in the skies
I thought that I could make you understand
A pretty crystal castle in the sand
I wonder where this pigeon will land
Once it flies out of my hand
I just woke up one morning and my deepest fears had died
I hope that I am strong enough to keep you by my side
Now you and I are driving
On a road that runs adjacent to the sea
The wind blows cold and salty
You press your head so softly into me
I tried so hard to summarize my code
I long to truly live before I'm old
Explore every inch of this road
And hold you 'til my bones are cold
If the sky above were burning, would I just run and hide?
I hope that I am strong enough to keep you by my side
Fate holds the revolver
And Time, it holds the blade against your throat
I crossed a sea of tears
And you alone were keeping me afloat
Chimes of faith and love
Echo through the canyons of my mind
It's farewell to those old days
I have no cause to sneak a glance behind
I'm prepared to proudly piss into the wind
To seek that silver summer dawn within
I'm so glad I finally let you in
It wasn't "whether". It was "when"
I told myself I'd never write a love song, but I lied
I hope that I am strong enough to keep you by my side
