Magnitude Lyrics by Lauren Oxford

Lauren Oxford

2022

Oh, we should’ve known
When our families went a-running
But we ignored the little trembles:
We were in love; there was no earthquake coming
We thought the rumbles were thunder
And we both loved dancing in the rain
So we waited for a storm
But the waters never came
The earth spread between us was always our weakness
Oh, you were so far away
But this gaping chasm — how it happened, I can’t fathom
Call it distance, but we know it’s something different
Oh, there was a time
When I loved you more than I’ve loved anything
I built a life
And it was all around you
Oh, I was yours
And darling, you were mine
But the miles and the silence…
Love, we drew our own fault lines
The earth spread between us was always our weakness
Oh, you were so far away
But this gaping chasm — how it happened I can’t fathom
Call it distance, but we know it’s something different
Oh, they say you can rebuild
From ashes into flame
But you can’t get it all back;
Some things will never be the same
So, must we decide
Where to cast the blame?
An earthquake is an earthquake
The rubble is all we can claim
The earth spread between us was always our weakness
Oh, you were so far away
But this gaping chasm — how it happened I can’t fathom
Call it distance, but we know it’s something different
