First, we were on our own But we had ourselves And wanted more We drew in the starry night Lit by firelight Till it came ashore I know love is never lost 'Cause every motion has its cost Even oceans turn to dust I know love is never lost Then a collective dream Made of smoking screens Took us town to town Once we were so afraid When the bases changed Buried in the ground I know love is never lost 'Cause every motion has its cost Even oceans turn to dust I know love is never lost Now, when the silence comes And the work is done Can we hear the sound We can 'cos we're up in space In a tiny place That we made our own I know love is never lost 'Cause every motion has its cost Even oceans turn to dust I know love is never lost
