Cathedral

I came from the valley

and you came from the sea.

You smelt like the sand.

How far up the river

would you go, would you go,

to meet me again ?

And I build a cathedral

With the shells that you hid

in a hole in a tree.

And I loved the words you said

When I told you what the ravens

sing in my dreams.

You pushed on my heart

every night and every day

to keep me alive.

And you kissed my mouth

and I learned to walk

and I learned to try.

Oh can you hear the horses ?

It means the season changes,

it means the season changes.

When the river overflows

I'll run to the bridges,

I'll run to the bridges.

And for now don't be afraid

If the sun never rises,

the sun never rises.

There's a time to let it grow,

A time to let it slow

And a time to let it go.
