I’d give anything
I would give anything for kinder winds
To leave this winter cold
Piercing like needles on our skin

But there’s a place
A place that promises a soft summer day
Behind the grey I swear I feel a change

Hey, will you stay with me
Until the river’s flowing free again
And will you follow me
Into a Promiseland we’ve never seen

We’ll wear the sun
Like golden blankets
To wrap around our arms
And dip our toes into the waters warm

I’d give anything
I would give anything for kinder winds To leave this winter cold
Hurting like needles on our skin

But there’s a place
There’s a place where just
The two of us can lie
And watch the skies
As they are set on fire
