Lyrics

[00:16.15] Cradling stones
[00:18.03] Hold fire bright
[00:22.84] As crickets call out
[00:25.40] To the moonlight
[00:30.15] And as you lean in
[00:32.46] To steal a kiss
[00:36.09] I\'ll never need more than this.
[00:56.94] We all share the pain
[00:58.31] of our histories
[00:59.88] but the ache goes away
[01:05.93] if you could see
[01:10.31] This night under stars
[01:12.88] well i call it peace
[01:14.94] if you say ill never need more than this
[01:20.62] And the trees grow so thick
[01:23.75] you can barely see through
[01:27.69] and the forest bestows
[01:30.87] all the simplest of truths
[01:34.56] and you think you\'ll be happy
[01:38.06] if granted one more wish.
[01:41.12] but the truth is,
[01:42.62] you\'ll never need more,
[01:46.00] you\'ll never need more ,
[01:50.62] you\'ll never need more than this.
[01:55.12]
[02:01.12] Want so much in this life
[02:03.62] There\'s so much to be
[02:08.43] we sail through our youth
[02:10.81] so impatiently
[02:12.43] until we see
[02:16.75]
[02:18.31] that the years move along
[02:22.31] and soldiers and heroes come home
[02:27.00] and they carry a song dont...
[02:30.69] Live in forgotten times
[02:34.18] may this always remind
[02:37.75] you of the sea under the skies
[02:41.31] you looking glass ?
[02:44.25] lets make this our story
[02:47.19] lets live in the glory
[02:51.56] time it fades away precious as a song
[02:56.06] cuz someday we\'ll be gone.
[02:60.00]
[03:14.49] Cradling stones
[03:16.24] hold fire bright.
[03:21.12] as we watch the glow
[03:23.74] of the morning light
[03:28.93] someday our bones here they will lie.
[03:33.05] and so we sing.
[03:38.30] As the years move along
[03:42.43] and soldiers and heroes come home
[03:46.99] and they carry a song
[03:51.55] lets make this our story
[03:54.43] lets live in the glory
[03:58.49] time it fades away precious as a song
[04:03.18] cuz someday we\'ll be gone.
