lyrics

flashes of fire in songs of rivers and rain
there’s nothing wrong with feeling alive to a lingering pain
and out of your mind with things you know are real
that only you can feel

far underneath the sea in a dream, her loveliness lies
crawling through the earth in a stream of laughter and sighs
she’s entered a world that only brave ones know
where only brave ones go

tonight i’m going to head out alone to see if she’s there
i’ll breathe her in and make her my own and drink up her tears
‘cause when we’re alone, there’s nothing we can’t be
and nothing we can’t see
