we'll be a laugh
tickling the insides of a time when
things were much easier

we'll be a kick
to the shins of those who said
we'd never slay the demons we run from

we'll never change
always holding onto the things we love
and looking forward to the things to come
arms spread wide from the past to the future
our navel suspended in the here and the now

you'll be the sun
radiating with the joy
of a thousand beating hearts
and circling the earth, selflessly moving
spreading yourself so thin to help

i'll be the breeze
a catalyst for the lazy season,
never solid, never sure
running with you
to escape the dark you chase
as i'll shout "nevermore" and it all blows away

we'll never change
always holding onto the things we love
and looking forward to the things to come
arms spread wide from the past to the future
our navel suspended in the here and the now

and you'll take my hand
and you'll take my hand
and you'll take my hand

we'll never change
always holding onto the things we love
and looking forward to the things to come
arms spread wide from the past to the future
our navel suspended in the here and the now

and we'll be the cry
of a new life born

and we'll be the years
growing old by the shore

and we'll be the soil
tossed over our bones

oh we'll never leave, never leave, never leave it alone
