No Cruel Angel

The bridge is long and narrow

the hills are burned by sorrow

the black crow died of blackness

the moon gave up his madness

but when two hearts like ours return

to the open sea

no arm can pull us down

no angel beneath the water

can never pull us under

some eyes can seal no secrets

but time erodes a surface

a snake swims the ocean

in an earth that turns for no one

but when two minds like ours dream

in an open sea

no steel door can close us in

no cruel angel at the gate

will ever seal our fate

the bridge is long and narrow

the hills drown in sorrow

the black crow died of blackness

the moon gave up his madness

but when two hearts like ours return

to the open sea

but when two minds like ours dream

in an open sea

no cruel arm can pull us down

no steel door can close us in

no angel beneath the water

will ever take us under

in an open sea

we're in an open sea

in an open sea
