I feel the day break here before my own boulder.

Now I kneel, push it along, and all alone, it's just getting harder.

You come console me with your chin on my shoulder.

Now I feel somewhat at home, just like where I started.

I feel the wind crash against my weary eyelids.

Now I see you battle strong, you carry on, we push the stone.

I can't believe the beautiful soul in this woman.

Now I feel like a whole new song, so I carry a different tone.


Now's the time I think that I never did try,

and how we'd end up on opposite sides.

I couldn't believe you might be gone,

I couldn't find the words to settle on.

But I've finally come to these ones: "I love you and I know that I'm right."

So I hope and think you won't argue when I say just what I'm feeling inside.

This cold bitter breeze, right now, just brings me down to my knees,

I hope one day it might take us away, to find a better place to be...


Now that great rock sits atop a faraway hill,

waiting to topple the next time we come near.

That's not a problem for our care, we'll be waiting,

all the way over here, in fresh air, not suffocating.
