Lyrics
When I?m tired of the double meanings and carrying the weight of the world
When all of the kind words don?t mean nothing and nothing I can give is returned
I can retreat to the harmony of the world that?s just you and me
I can close my eyes and just breathe it all in
Pure as the wine we drink together
Pure as the western breeze
Pure as the light you bring to me
When we find what we?re seeking if we find what we?re seeking
I wonder if we?ll wonder what it is that we were seeking at all
When we finally stop this singing about the weight of the world
Will we find that the singing is the only thing that keeps the sky from falling
Pure as the wine we drink together
Pure as the kiss of spring
Pure as the light you bring to me
Pure as the lives we live together
Pure as the silence when we sleep
Pure as the light you bring to me
All the things I want you to know before I go
All the strength I wish that someday I could show
All those things that make your life what I?m living for
(Let it live) Everything that you could ever be
(Let it live) All those dreams, they could pass us by so easily
So pure they?re impossible to see
(Let it live) So pure that they?ll all avert their eyes
(Let it live) So much there that I never realized
I never realized
