Live to Tell the Tale

This is the room where we always dreamed of grass and splendid evenings

Emitting frequencies, lost between the leaves and things

And I held on brightly, crushing quietly

Feeling mountains rising out of make-believe seas, creating typhoons

Of feelings not easily made without need

God bless that smile on your face

God bless the seeds in the ground

God bless my family's keen gaze,

Oh, I know

That whatever happens to you,

Whatever happens to me,

I hope that I'll fall asleep

Knowing that you'll always be

The story with no ending

The whole slew blossomed beautifully,

And I was beside myself

So I gave into your love

As you rapturously commanded

And this is like I have always dreamed:

Cobblestone and dusty feet

That's the way it should always be

Head over heels and deftly

Wonderful and healthy

God bless that smile on your face

God bless the seeds in the ground

God bless my family's keen gaze,

Oh, I know

That whatever happens to you,

Whatever happens to me,

I hope that I'll fall asleep

Knowing that you'll always be

The story with no ending

I never thought you were here

You've never left me, have you?

You've never left me at all

Not once, and

I'm sorry I'm such a bore

I'm sorry I am so hard

I swear to God, I'll be good

From now on, and

God bless that smile on your face

God bless the seeds in the ground

God bless my family's keen gaze,

Oh, I know

That whatever happens to you,

Whatever happens to me,

I hope that I'll fall asleep

Knowing that you'll always be

The story with no ending
