Can you walk on the water if I, you and I?

Because your blood’s running cold outside the familiar true to life

Can you walk on the water if I, you and I?

Or keep your eyes on the road and live in the familiar without you and I

It glows with gates of gold to true life

For our love is a ghost that the others can’t see

It’s a danger

Every shade of us you fade down to keep

them in the dark on who we are

(Oh what you do to me)

This love is gonna be the death of me

It’s a danger

Cause our love is a ghost that the others can’t see

We took a walk to the summit at night, you and I

To burn a hole in the old grip of the familiar true to life

And the dark was opening wide, do or die

Under a mask of vermillion ruling eyes

And our love is a ghost that the others can’t see

It’s a danger

Every shade of us you fade down to keep

them in the dark on who we are

(Oh what you do to me)

Gonna be the death of me

It’s a danger

Cause our love is a ghost that the others can’t see
