about

Written by Matt LeFevers. Copyright 2013.

lyrics

Our love is not the stars, nothing so fragile. It is not the Earth, to break so easily. Though the Atlantic lines its floors with sunken vessels, even it knows there are some things vaster than the deep.

So don’t be afraid. My love, just stay. There could be nothing more than this, and you are safe now… you’re safe. Don’t be afraid. Why should we fear? Let the world wear down its weapons on our gates. They’ll never reach us here.

Our love is not the walls of Troy, so meager, that held an army’s wrath at bay a mere ten years. It is written in a word older than language. It will endure beyond the breaking of all things.

So sing of joy, sing of redemption, but let these songs of worry falter on our lips. The night will end, the sun is rising, and I won’t let go, however long it takes.
