LYRICS
I could look at your face
For a thousand years
It’s like a civil war
Of pain and of cheer
But if you was a horse
I could help you with your chains
I could ride you through the fields
By your fiery mane
May your shade be sweet
And float upon the lakes
Where the sun will be made of honey
I’ll cry diamonds while you burn
‘Cause no one here can save you
She’s returning to the earth
But one day she’ll be silver
Stars are dying in my chest
Until I see you again
She was born with the wings of a hawk
But now she combs her hair with blood
May your shade be sweet
And float upon the lakes
There the sun will be made of honey
May your shade be sweet
And float upon the lakes
I know the sun could be made of honey
May your shade be sweet
May your shade be sweet
And float upon the lakes
May your shade be sweet
