Lyrics
What is beauty compared to grief
What is joy in league with sorrow
A dead rushes' fleet drifting on a quiet tide
N' does a sunset know its worth
Making yesterday tomorrow
Is there a silence on this earth before every tear's been cried
For you, for you
I would bring down the heavens on this earth
For you, for you
I would even trust the devil for rebirth
With every road once paved with gold
Both hands with a heart to hold
How could we look past all the stories we have told
Could we lose ourselves again
In a childlike faith
Trust the wishing well, dance like Tinker Bell
For you, for you
I would walk forever through this barren land
For you, for you
I would hold a deadly viper in my hand
For you, for you
I would bring down the heavens on this earth
For you, for you
I would even trust the devil for rebirth
Trivia
- The track The Child in Me may be foreshadowed by the line "Could we lose ourselves again in a childlike faith"
