And you're my lover
You're so near, you're so far
You're the reason I'm living
The flowers that are dead in my hands
Can I put my faith in you?
You're the sky, you're my self
You are everything I ever wanted
You're my god, you're my hell
You're everything I cannot see
And you're my lover
I must walk away from you
You're the reason I'm living
You must let me stand or fall
So I carry, I carry the flowers
You're my god, you're my hell
Now you know I must leave here
So you lap at the edges of me
You're so near, you're so far
You're the miles left to go
You're so near, you're so far
As the ocean crawls onto the shoreline
You're the chain, you're the rope
And you're all that I have to discover
You are everything I ever wanted
Now the drizzle soaks us to the skin
You're the rain, you're the stars
But you will always be my special friend
You are everything I ever wanted
You're the sky, you're my self
You're my friend, you're my foe
Now this storm is finally through
And you're all that I have to discover
And you're all that I have to discover
You're the rain, you're the stars
You're my friend, you're my foe
You're the miles left to go
You're my friend, you're my foe
You're the reason I'm living
You're my god, you're my hell
You're my god, you're my hell

You're the rain, you're the stars
You're my friend, you're my foe
They will naturally understand
And now as I'm walking
That we find out once and for all
For as much as I need you
You're my life, you're my hope
You're the sky, you're my self
And the stars hang like a noose
You're my life, you're my hope
You're so near, you're so far
They will rise up at the very sight of you
You're my life, you're my hope
So let's face this together
If I leave, will you follow?
And I love you now as I loved you then
You're the chain, you're the rope
You're the chain, you're the rope
You're the rain, you're the stars
I feel you all around me
You're the miles left to go

I will carry you with me and we can love again
You're the sky, you're my self
That today is the day
But this island life just had to end
You're the reason I'm living
You're my life, you're my hope
You are everything I ever wanted
And you're all that I have to discover
And you're my lover
You're the chain, you're the rope
You're the miles left to go
I know that you're watching me move
And you're my lover
