I've been counting the cracks in the ceiling again

Every shadow’s a shape that you left in my hands

The clock on the wall doesn't know how to stop

But I'd break every gear just to freeze what we've got

Пред-припев

And people say, "Let go, let the river run dry"

But they never held a fire that refused to die

Припев

I don't need forever, just give me tonight

In a world made of dust, you’re the only gold

Let them bury my name when I'm gone out of sight

But my heart will be here when this story gets old

Yeah, I’ll love you in dust and in gold

Куплет (2)

I’ve rehearsed the goodbye like a song out of tune

In a house made of matches under a reckless moon

But you laughed at the fire and you held my wrist tight
