[00:01.42]If you were a stone then I'd be the rain
[00:08.04]Turn you to sand as the time slips away
[00:12.54]
[00:14.29]If you were a tree then I'd be the earth
[00:19.39]
[00:20.69]Clutching your roots as you reach skyward
[00:25.51]
[00:28.38]I am a metaphor for all the things I couldn't say
[00:33.72]
[00:35.59]It's never easy then it hurts
[00:38.27]
[00:41.33]Like scratching diamonds I have tried to find my way to you
[00:46.45]
[00:48.13]But we're both moving in reverse
[00:51.11]
[00:54.11]I wish that we could both find a simple way just to make it by
[00:59.87]Right now I'm alright if you're just fine
[01:03.90]
[01:05.52]But if you were a stone then I'd be the rain
[01:10.63]
[01:12.00]Turn you to sand as the time slips away
[01:16.80]
[01:18.24]If you were a tree then I'd be the earth
[01:23.48]
[01:24.54]Clutching your roots as you reach skyward
[01:29.61]
[01:32.36]Some nights you're a photograph fading in my memory
[01:37.61]
[01:39.05]Some days I feel you on my skin
[01:42.42]
[01:45.41]We're trading silence
[01:47.47]There are words that seem to steal our breath
[01:51.22]
[01:52.21]And I just dream about your lips
[01:54.89]
[01:58.08]I wish that we could both find a simple way just to make it by
[02:03.47]Right now I'm alright if you're just fine
[02:07.87]
[02:09.61]But if you were a stone then I'd be the rain
[02:14.67]
[02:15.98]Turn you to sand as the time slips away
[02:20.86]
[02:22.36]If you were a tree then I'd be the earth
[02:27.35]
[02:28.66]Clutching your roots as you reach skyward
[02:33.58]
[02:35.26]We'd count the stars
[02:37.32]
[02:37.89]My hands in your leaves
[02:40.44]
[02:41.69]And I'd hold my breath 'til we both fell asleep
[02:46.43]
[02:47.99]If you were a stone then I'd be the rain,
[02:53.11]
[02:54.29]Turn you to sand as the time slips away
[02:59.47]
[03:01.91]I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for..
[03:05.03]I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for..
[03:08.21]I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for you.
[03:12.28]
[03:14.71]I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for..
[03:17.89]I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for..
[03:21.14]I will wait, I will wait, I will wait for you.
[03:25.32]
[03:26.31]If you were a stone, then I'd be the rain,
[03:31.56]
[03:32.75]I'd turn you to sand as the time slips away.
[03:37.42]
[03:39.29]If you were a tree, then I'd be the earth,
[03:44.73]
[03:45.53]clutching your roots as you reach skyward.
[03:50.22]
[03:51.84]If you were a stone, then I'd be the rain,
[03:57.04]
[03:58.35]I'd turn you to sand as the time slips away.
