lyrics

You are not what I think
About the blackened heart of the world
You are what I feel
When stars explode

You are not a faint flickering light
You are the snow-covered sand
In the hours before dawn

A fire dug in the icy ground
Hidden in the white trees
Burning till the rum runs out

You could turn the power out with your mind
And we’ll never need a watch to tell the time
Cause the snow plows been passing by our window all night

You’re singing softly in my ear
My knees are covered with your tears
That’s the sound of our hearts shaking
What we’ve found after all our waiting

And now you think it’s burning out
All of the trees are falling down
Well I’ve seen a forest with a smoking ground
I’ve seen you cry without making a sound

But those were just bad dreams
That is not what this is
I know you still love me
Even from a distance

I never thought you would happen
You’ll throw out your bones to make the stars
Yeah I don’t see this as the end
So I can’t just let it break and tear apart
I never thought this would happen
You’ll tear out your bones to make the stars

If you had to
If you needed to
If I asked you
If I needed you
You’d be there

- Brian Tucker of Star News ... more
