The summer set fire to the rain
And fire to my bones
But you just stood there
Begging for the world to leave you
To leave you alone
The summer set fire to the rain
And fire to my bones
It burned until nothing remained
Of all that I'd known
The winter held spring in white gloves
And slowly it grew
But you just stood there
Waiting for the world to walk out
To walk out on you
The summer set fire to the rain
And fire to my bones
It burned until nothing remained
Of all that I'd known
(Don't you see everything's interweaving?)
The summer set fire to the rain
And fire to my bones
(Don't you know all of the world's conceiving you?)
It burned until nothing remained
Of all that I'd known
How long, how long
Holding true?
How long, how long
Until the bloom?
How long, how long
Holding true?
How long, how long
Must we wait for you?
How long, how long
Holding true?
How long, how long
Until you bloom?
How long, how long
Holding true?
How long, how long
Must we wait for you?
(How long?) It's waiting
(How long?) Under the snow
We sowed the good seed
How long till you let it grow?
(How long?) It's waiting
(How long?) Under the snow
We sowed the good seed
How long till you let it grow?
How long, how long?
How long, how long?
