lyrics

Sweetheart, heaven help me
No more shall we part
Silence whispering and weeping
Echoing all through the dark

Sweetheart, bells and birdsong
Contrails hung with charms
Neither waves nor earthquakes
Will take you from my arms

When you lie wide awake in in the deepening evening
With no things to hold and no hopes to believe in
I'll keep my eyes closed 'cause I know you are dreaming through me

Sweetheart, where does time go
When we are apart
Evenings we spend wishing
Upon that same distant star

Sweetheart, is there heaven
Buried up there in the sky
Hidden in secret constellations
Slowly drifting by

When you lie wide awake in the dark deep and hollow
In the cold hidden places where no one can follow
I'm here to remind you tomorrow's not so far away

When we fade from heaven
Our bodies neither flesh nor flame
Shadows like coelacanths drifting
In an ocean that goes by no name
