Concrete And Clay
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.
You, to me
Are sweet as roses in the morning
You, to me
Are soft as summer in that dawning love we share
That something rare
The sidewalks and the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begin to crumble
But love will never die
You know we'll see the mountains crumble
Before we say goodbye
My love and I will be
In love eternally
That's the way
That's the way love was meant to be
All around
I see the purple shades of evening
On the ground
The shadow's fallen, once again you're in my arms
So tenderly
The sidewalks and the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begin to crumble
But love will never die
You know we'll see the mountains crumble
Before we say goodbye
My love and I will be
In love eternally
That's the way
That's the way love was meant to be
The sidewalks and the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begin to crumble
But love will never die
You know we'll see the mountains crumble
Before we say goodbye
My love and I will be
In love eternally
That's the way
That's the way love was meant to be
That's the way
That's the way love was meant to be
