about

An apocalyptic love ballad.

lyrics

VERSE 1
Without you
My head’s like an ocean that
Has no shore
So I went down to the waterhole
I found you there
And we saw
Blood on the rocks
And wounded trees with
brand new leaves

CHORUS
I never told you I loved you
I clung to you through the storm
Waters rose on distant shores
Those crippled wings tore down walls
Patiently waited for the
First light
To come home
To your door

VERSE 2
The rain poured down
And then the levee broke
Birds fell from the sky
Oh how we cried
When we saw
Roadkill on freeways
And wounded trees with
Brand new leaves

CHORUS
And I never told you that I love you
I clung to you through the storm
Waters rose on distant shores
Those crippled wings broke down walls
Patiently waited
For the first light To fly home
To your door
