They say true love...
It grows in a garden bright
Bathed in golden sun, bathed in joyful light
But my love, it was born on a different night
In the fissures of a stone, bathed in pale moonlight.
Yeah, my love's a lonely flower,
You see... it was shaped down in the caverns,
deep inside of me.
From the profound sorrow of a shattered heart
That's where our love was given its start.
And every tear that falls is
a blessin' in the rain,
nourishes the seed, eases all the pain.
It pushes roots down deeper,
through the hurt and the strain.
Into the bedrock of my soul,
where they remain.
Oh, this silence ain't empty,
it's a sacred, holy ground.
It lets our love grow stronger,
without a single sound...
Safe from all the noise,
the world's hollow, empty din
In the quiet...
Yeah, in the quiet, we let the love in.
So don't you look for me,
where the party's burnin' fast
In a vibrant garden, honey.
There... love is never meant to last
Our love's a slow, blue candle,
in a window, cold and vast
A steady, quiet glow that's built to last.
It finds its strength in stillness.
Its rhythm in the grey.
It learns to sing a sweeter song,
at the closing of the day.
It's a lonely, beautiful tune that only we can play
In the isolation where our spirits stray.
So let 'em have their laughter,
let 'em have their wine
I'll be here in the shadows,
where your light and mine entwine.
This ain't the easy journey, no,
it's a rugged, lonely climb...
But it's ours, sweetheart...
It's yours and it's mine.
Yeah... the world's hollow din...
In the quiet... we let the love in...
In the bedrock... honey...
down deep within...
Yeah... down deep within...
