Cover From the Sky

I will love you when the morning is ascending
I will love you when the moon is riding high
I will love you when we only have pretending
When our home becomes a cover from the sky
Well my eyes have seen the dust and then the ashes
And the lowland and white sky of your home
And the rain that washed mascara from your lashes
When nothing gave us cover from the sky
When you're gone I notice
All your tiny touches
And it's then I see
'Cause it's then that I know why
If the days become the walls you knew you wanted
Our years will give us cover from the sky
- D G D Dsus4 D (x2)
Well we've been among the saint and then the angels
And we don't want to wait until we die (no, no)
So we'll stand among the ruins of our temple
And pray to God for cover from the sky
