before we disappear

time ain't nothing if it ain't fast

taking everything that you ever had

and giving nothing in return

but a cold bed in a quiet earth

if there's a door to every cell

a pearl inside of every shell then

how hard can it be

to share your love with me?

how hard can it be

to rise with me each morning?

i know that it feels like

we will live forever

but i fear

that time will hide the years

life ain't nothing if it ain't hard

it'll show you who you truly are

knock you down when you get too tall

till you're spun around in a free fall

but somewhere out there past the storm

lies the shelter of your heart

so how hard can it be

to share your love with me?

how hard can it be

to rise with me each morning?

i know that it feels like

we will live for ever

but i fear

that time can hide the years

so hold on tightly my dear

i'm not one to waste my time

searching for some silver lining

but somewhere out there past the storm

lies the shelter

of your heart

so how hard can it be

to share your love with me?

how hard can it be

to rise with me each morning?

i know that it feels like

we will live forever

but i fear

that time can hide the years

like we were never here

so hold on tightly my dear

before we disappear

before we disappear
