lyrics

each of us forever as one
everything to lose summers just begun
so cover the distance with roses and doves
and spoil the future by forgetting our love
ill wait for the morning the sun will still rise
your typewriters in sync with the night
flashing in patterns under these big city lights

well i run from birds that sing to you
crashing down like an avalanche
so tell me why is the ocean blue
and bring me back a jar of sand
