Lyrics
Lips on lips in the darkness
Every night
The kiss hides us
Lovers and strangers
Are covered below
When our lips like rose petals fall
We share our lives at such high costs
And what we’ve lost is only ours to know
Young in the dark again
We’ll last in our touch
Longer than the stars
Turning over us
I think that only what is Happy endures
I think that only what is Happy endures
I think that only what is Happy endures
Absolved of all love promised
So who cares if our dreams forgot us
The days snag along the river bank
While we float on by
Two traveler’s unnoticed by the night
I think that only what is Happy endures
I think that only what is Happy endures
I think that only what is Happy endures
