[00:01.42] If you were a stone then I'd be the rain
[00:08.04] Turn you to sand as the time slips away
[00:12.54]
[00:14.29] If you were a tree then I'd be the earth
[00:19.39]
[00:20.69] Clutching your roots as you reach skyward
[00:25.51]
[00:28.38] I am a metaphor for all the things I couldn't say
[00:33.72]
[00:35.59] It's never easy then it hurts
[00:38.27]
[00:41.33] Like scratching diamonds I have tried to find my way to you
[00:46.45]
[00:48.13] But we're both moving in reverse
[00:51.11]
[00:54.11] I wish that we could both find a simple way just to make it by
[00:59.87] Right now I'm alright if you're just fine
[01:03.90]
[01:05.52] But if you were a stone then I'd be the rain
[01:10.63]
[01:12.00] Turn you to sand as the time slips away
[01:16.80]
[01:18.24] If you were a tree then I'd be the earth
[01:23.48]
[01:24.54] Clutching your roots as you reach skyward
[01:29.61]
[01:32.36] Some nights you're a photograph fading in my memory
[01:37.61]
[01:39.05] Some days I feel you on my skin
[01:42.42]
[01:45.41] We're trading silence
[01:47.47] There are words that seem to steal our breath
[01:51.22]
[01:52.21] And I just dream about your lips
[01:54.89]
[01:58.08] I wish that we could both find a simple way just to make it by
[02:03.47] Right now I'm alright if you're just fine
[02:07.87]
[02:09.61] But if you were a stone then I'd be the rain
[02:14.67]
[02:15.98] Turn you to sand as the time slips away
[02:20.86]
[02:22.36] If you were a tree then I'd be the earth
[02:27.35]
[02:28.66] Clutching your roots as you reach skyward
[02:33.58]
[02:35.26] We'd count the stars
[02:37.32]
[02:37.89] My hands in your leaves
[02:40.44]
[02:41.69] And I'd hold my breath 'til we both fell asleep
[02:46.43]
[02:47.99] If you were a stone then I'd be the rain,
[02:53.11]
[02:54.29] Turn you to sand as the time slips away
[02:59.47]
[03:01.91] I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for..
[03:05.03] I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for..
[03:08.21] I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for you.
[03:12.28]
[03:14.71] I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for..
[03:17.89] I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for..
[03:21.14] I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for you.
[03:25.32]
[03:26.31] If you were a stone, then I'd be the rain,
[03:31.56]
[03:32.75] I'd turn you to sand as the time slips away.
[03:37.42]
[03:39.29] If you were a tree, then I'd be the earth,
[03:44.73]
[03:45.53] clutching your roots as you reach skyward.
[03:50.22]
[03:51.84] If you were a stone, then I'd be the rain,
[03:57.04]
[03:58.35] I'd turn you to sand as the time slips away.
[04:03.90]
