lyrics

Felt you like the sun
a slowly rising light
look how the day is changing into night again
I know you'd be so warm

My love lies sleeping
tucked underneath the leaves
been tearing your roots out of me
gathering all your seeds

Don't make me look into you at all today
it's burning out my eyes
like I can choose how the waves rise and fall again
like trying to change the tide

my love lies sleeping
only to rouse
all this bloodless weeping
cover me with cloud

The purest love
is like that cloud
illuminated by the sun.
The purest love
is born of darkness
illuminated by the sun.

All I've ever wanted is love.
