Vnv Nation Before The Rain
[Verse 1]
Flash backward to the time
Your silhouette disguised...
...the glow of night's reflection
Your outline locked in phase...
...like a vivid, liquid haze
Lit up the night electric
[Pre-Chorus]
A moment staged for us
Until we turn to dust
'Til time's evaporated
But were we ever there...
...enraptured, unaware?
We were lovers only dreaming
[Chorus]
We dared eternity and won...
...long before the rain had come
We built a universe
We held a cosmos in our hands
Unstoppable force, the purest light...
...to set the firmament alight
We built a universe...
...so we could hold the cosmos in our hands
[Verse 2]
The switch turned to engage
The power rushed and raged
Lit up your face electric
Lightspeed in a dream
The static bursts, the stream...
...the ultrasonic strains of music
[Pre-Chorus]
Revived in youth again...
...with each step as we claim...
...shattered mirrors in the rainfall
But were we ever there...
...enraptured and unaware?
We were lovers only dreaming
[Chorus]
