lyrics

The Braiding Cord

Wherever I go
Whatever I'll be
You're always there
Wrapped around me
Under the stone
Or over the sea
You're always there
To catch me
Then why do I fight?
Why do I scream?
When you pull the cord a little tightly?
When you pull the cord a little tightly?

I know this is not what you dreamed
Darkened skies on sunkissed streets
Fear and confusion reign free
Don't be long I won't be here
Sundays clothes for Friday's deeds
Don't give up, give up on me
Don't give up, give up on me

You live for love and you die for love
You live for love and you die for love
You live for love and you die for love
You die for love
Oh I'm waiting for you to say "when"

Promises I just can't keep
Darkened skies on sunkissed streets
Sunday clothes for Friday's deeds
Don't give up, give up on me
Don't be long I won't be here
Don't be long I won't be here
Don't be long I won't be here

You live for love
You die for love
You die for love
Die for love
Die for love
