Old white stone work
Falling down
All tangled up in the grass and dust
Bright in the sunlight
Cold in the rain
This was not meant to last
This was not meant to last
But still, after all, look what is still here
Broken plates
On the floor
No-one to pick them all up this time
Bright in the passion
Cold in the tears
This was not meant to last
This was not meant to last
But still, after all, look what is still here
Look what is still here
Sift through the embers of the fire
Wade through the waters of the flood
Here in the ruins of it all
Here we will be together
Here we will be forever
