Lyrics
Love Among The Ruins
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The sky was falling, heaven was calling
When danger crashes, rose from the ashes
Like two statues hidden inside ancient rock
We were praying for the secrets to unlock
And when the Sun had turned its back on us
In the dark our love kept track of us
Pushed together by the lack of love
We held each other tightly through our hell of dreams
I still hear the never-ending echo of those screams
But it's a life not made for reliving
Its a life that makes your soul forgiving
We sealed our bond from the beginning
Aching, affection, vulnerable protection
Falling, captured, crawling, rapture
