Washed away Lyrics by The Tender Idols

Distressor

0

Paper cups collecting rain
Feathers from the zoo we kept of life as we left it
Tiger lilies in a row
Blow them down when summer's old
And I remember you
Wake us up, don't let us go
Fill our heads with stories and of life as we left it
And should the hand reach 12 o'clock
And I'm pretending that it's not too late
To hold you one more time
And I believed in you, and you believed in me
And easy was the weight of love we shared
And I believed in you, and you believed in me
And easy was the way we let it go
Chorus:
If half the world is saved
And half gets washed away
I'll meet you where the mountains turn to heaven
Tripping into swimming pools
Speaking languages we learned to use to each other
So soon we had to pack it in
Swap our coins for paper bills and life as we left it, years ago
And I believed in you, and you believed in me
And easy was the weight of love we shared
And I believed in you, and you believed in me
And easy was the way we let it go
Chorus
