Lover Reef

There's a cold wind through

This sea of sand

And the sun's gone down

On our parting hands

So darling please

Don't let me go

Tread lightly on this

Bed of snow.

(chorus)

There's a fire lit

So let's unthaw now

Too cold and too far

We'll make it out somehow

We've turned to ice

And it's not our way to be

So let the earth quake

And melt with me.

Through the coldest nights

And dawning day

I will wait for you

In our hideaway

And our lips will meet

In the frozen air

When the shadows fall

I'll still be there.

When our emotions first ignited

It's like our hearts were never tired

My desires were set free

Was like a raging wildfire.

But now that spark has grown dark

We're now just dying embers

Afraid I'll end up all alone

Within these cold Decembers.

(chorus)

There's a fire lit

So let's unthaw now

Too cold and too far

We'll make it out somehow

We've turned to ice

And it's not our way to be

So let the earth quake

And melt with me.
