|
Precious stones and stolen thrones vanish in a day |
|
And your golden rings, your silver rings will crumble and decay. |
|
Silks and satins and crimson velvet will someday fade away |
|
But the stones will stand across the land and love will have its day. |
|
Change will come to everyone, never question why |
|
Sticks and stones will break your bones and words will make you cry |
|
The sun will shiver, the moon will crumble and vanish from the sky |
|
But the hills remain, love's the same, love will never die. |
|
I can see the lights below us twinkle like the stars; |
|
And I know they're waiting patiently for the day to break again. |
|
Distant skies, different eyes, change has come so fast |
|
Mother of pearl, distant girl clutches at the past |
|
But in the sunset I see your eyes and they tell me nothing's lost |
|
While the rocks remain, loves the same, strong love, strong love, strong love will last. |
