Duncan Sheik Hymn
All the storms and oceans
All the sheltering sky
All this earth and she and I
Wait, until it happens
Wait, the moment will come
Wait, but all those are already one
And she asks me, how many sunrises
Will we watch from start to finish
How many will we witness?
And my answers are only ever surmises
Maybe a handful of times
Before the next life, before the next life
Here, we stop beneath the leaves
Here, a moment to stay
Here, a gift of pale green color, here above her
And she asks me, how many sunrises
Will we watch from start to finish
How many will we witness?
And my answers are only ever surmises
Maybe a handful of times
Before the next life
A kiss, a prayer, a laugh, a song
She won't try to tell me, what's right from wrong
A song, a laugh, a prayer, a kiss
She won't try to tell me, I need more than this
All my answers, all my surmises
Will never do it justice
She'll just have to trust it
Wait here, 'til the sun rises
Watch from start to finish
No one as our witness
With no one as our witness
