[00:13.409]He was the rock of old
[00:16.332]Carved and faced
[00:19.078]Land of the cross
[00:21.386]Drawn and traced
[00:25.162]She of silk and lace
[00:28.481]Soft as night
[00:31.663]A crescent moon
[00:33.674]Bathed in light
[00:37.493]Who would dare tear them apart
[00:43.659]Who would try to halve this heart
[00:49.999]How can we stand
[00:53.740]To hold up a man
[00:56.982]To choose in his hand
[01:00.003]Between two grains of sand
[01:05.904]How can we turn
[01:09.427]To violence and burn
[01:12.596]Forget all we've learned
[01:15.630]To darkness return
[01:21.601]It's been told before
[01:24.750]I'll tell it again
[01:27.599]How jealousy struck
[01:30.707]And hate aid again
[01:34.120]To plunder once
[01:37.100]Once and for all
[01:40.063]This cherished pearl
[01:43.129]Till sorrow falls
[01:46.552]They stole in and crept like thieves
[01:52.578]A murder buried under autumn leaves
[01:58.971]How can we stand
[02:02.658]To hold up a man
[02:05.542]To choose in his hand
[02:08.584]Between two grains of sand
[02:14.839]How can we turn
[02:18.283]To violence and burn
[02:21.343]Forget all we've learned
[02:24.244]To darkness return
[02:30.103]
[02:51.429]Too pure to shine
[02:55.082]In this world of sighs
[02:57.999]Of butchers and crimes
[03:01.008]Of laws and lies
[03:04.288]But something of their love will remain
[03:10.277]In the frozen drops of winter's rain
[03:13.945]They're above us there is no doubt
[03:22.725]There is a light that won't go out
[03:29.637]How can we stand
[03:33.049]To hold up a man
[03:35.964]To choose in his hand
[03:39.004]Between two grains of sand
[03:45.133]How can we turn
[03:48.407]To violence and burn
[03:51.759]Forget all we've learned
[03:54.701]To darkness return
[03:59.664]
