It always comes too late
It always comes too soon
The rising of the sun
The crumbling of the moon
That life-defining weight
That sweet and simple tune
I would raise you
I would save you
If I could
I would raise you
I would save you
From the coming flood
In the light of the distant stars
I wipe the rain marks from the car
The only thing I know is true
I want to drive away with you
I would wake you
I would take you
If I could
I would raise you
I would save you
From the coming flood
And we wonder
Who’ll love us now?
