Was This Our Love?
03:26

We woke up this morning
Not knowing
that our house
was burning down
Opened up our eyes
Expecting peace,
but we saw flames
all around
Was this our love on fire?
Turned to smoke
while we were lying down
Or our hopes on the pyre?
Turned to ash
while we danced all around
We met up at midday
the sun
had hung itself
out in the yard
And though we feared defeat
We knew our hearts
could take the heat
despite the scars
Was this our love on fire?
Burning bones of plans
that we had laid
Or our hopes on the pyre?
Cracklin'
in the sirens' serenade
Night fell like a hammer
to pound into
our heads
a newborn shame
Everything is now
and forever
we won't forget
the pain
Of our love on fire
Rising from the one
eternal flame
Or our hopes on the pyre
Embers on the wind
to light the way
Of our love on fire
Rising from the one
eternal flame
Or our hopes on the pyre
Embers on the wind
to light our way

One More Storm

One more storm
weathered together
One more fork
in the road to Forever
One more grain
in the sands of time
One more heart
I'm proud to call mine
Wearin' your colors, my dear
for all time
Everything's
gonna be all right
Every night I wake up
with the blues
My famous raincoat
and a case of you
There ain't nothin', baby
I won't do
To prove it
all night
That my love
is true
One more storm
weathered together
One more fork
in the road to Forever
One more grain
in the sands of time
One more heart
I'm proud to call mine
Wearin' your colors, my dear
for all time
Everything's
gonna be all right
Baby, you and I were
built to last
Sorrow safely buried
in the past
When you feel it
tappin' on the glass
Lash your tired body
to the mast
One more storm
weathered together
One more fork
in the road to Forever
One more grain
in the sands of time
One more heart
I'm proud to call mine
Wearin' your colors, my dear
for all time
Everything's
gonna be all right

Baby, it's undeniable
my kind of crazy's indefinable
Here in the darkness
in my hours alone
Trying to conquer
the one thing I can't seem to own
Tears, like strangers
Give me danger
Oh look what you've
done to me
Dressed to the eights
you're a portrait
of misery
Count your six blessings
and spin me around
Just another peacemaker
in love's lost and found
When the night reaches for my hand
Drags me down, 'til I understand
Somethin' inside me
like a river of gold
'Til I'm beside me
Beside myself and alone
Tears, like strangers
Give me danger
Oh look what you've
done to me
Dressed to the eights
you're a portrait
of misery
Count your six blessings
and spin me around
Just another peacemaker
in love's lost and found
Baby, it's undeniable
my kind of crazy's indefinable
Here in the darkness
in my hours alone
Trying to conquer
the one thing I can't seem to own
Tears, like strangers
Give me danger
Oh look what you've
done to me
Dressed to the eights
you're a portrait
of misery
Count your six blessings
and spin me around
Just another peacemaker
in love's lost and found

There are seven salted seas
That I have bled for you
In this burden of disease
I am wed to you
Do you remember everything
I ever said to you?
If you do, tell me true,
Is this fire something new?
Or did you feel it all the way
Towards the way it is today?
Oh, baby, when you act so strange
It's like I'm waiting for a light to change
Like I'm finally gonna break away
Gonna find a way to break these chains
And find you waiting for me
There are no flowers in the field
Where we'll be married
Only the dirt that covers
Everything we've buried
They will cower in the dark
When it gets scary
When they do, tell me true,
Am I a seed that never grew?
Or was I growing in the rain
Of just another diamond day?
Oh, baby, when you act so strange
It's like I'm waiting for a light to change
Like I'm finally gonna break away
Gonna find a way to break these chains
And find you waiting for me
In this pair of suited hearts
One of the twos is three
What a pair of perfect parts
This two part symphony
Turn up the bass on the piano
'Til it's deafening
We'll see it through, me and you,
Like we almost always do,
Like a chord that fell somewhere
Between the dimming and the dew?
Oh, baby, when you act so strange
It's like I'm waiting for a light to change
Like I'm finally gonna break away
Gonna find a way to break these chains
And find you waiting for me
