lyrics

when the fire has all burned out
and the rocks have gotten cold
and the last song has been sung
and the spirits have been sent home
i just lay here on the ground
with my head turned toward the south
in the silence of the night
in the darkness painted bright
i can see you in my dreams
spinning skyward as we sleep
but when i wake up, she is gone
and there's just a memory of our love
but i will wait here, standing strong..
in the truth of right and wrong
when i see you
when i see you
the day will come
when i will see you

when i see you
when i see you..

but it hurts too much to write letters anymore
no one reads them to you anyway
so i cradled all this time i saved for you
but i would like to see that
smile in your heart as you grow

when i see you
when i see you
the day will come
when i will see you

when i see you
when i see you..

and i'm standing here til this world burns down
at the bottom of the ocean every night
and i'll rise above it all to get to you
i will be waiting
with my hand across my heart
only for you

when i see you
when i see you
the day will come
when i will see you

During the final days of writing my thesis I listened to this album on repeat for hours at a time. It was like being suspended in one eternal moment while all that changed around me were the ripples and eddies of a slowly meandering river. catharina_bee
