Temple

(album: Islands Apart - 2016)

From a thousand miles above
I want lies like I want love
In the shadows of the temple

I kiss the fire like a hawk
Wave the sparks into the dark
Come on let's wait here forever

As soon as
It falls
As soon as

You say you want love
You say you want love
Young in the heart and for what?
We shine at the start, for how long?

I'm down I drown on salted air
The rains we get to keep to share
In the shadows of the temple

You shape and mould me out of bone
Draw a war upon a stone
Come on let's wait here forever

As soon as
It falls
As soon as

You say you want love
You say you want love
Young in the heart and for what?
We shine at the start, for how long?
You say you want love
You say you want love
A taste of the rain to get by
A temple to keep us alive

Don't go there, I'm watching
But I'm tuning out
Don't blow it, it's catching
Fire and light

You say you want love
Young in the heart and for what?
We shine at the start, for how long?

You say you want love
A taste of the rain to get by
A temple to keep us alive
