We kept our heads down we moved through the water's wake
we lay still until winter had worn off
there were cold winds bringing storms together
there were black clouds over rainbows we could see the messages etched on the fence posts
from those summer nights when we slept outside under starlight
Would you love me any less
if my eyes became weak
if I could no longer hear you speak
would you love me any less
you were born with an honest heart
and it carried me from the start
It kept our skin warm as we walked on the old rail tracks
the sun beat misty heat down on our backs
there was nothing that could ever change us
there were picture frames on the window sill with an image of us looking so still
guess I thought that we'd be here forever
Would you love me any less
if my lungs became weak
if I had lost the strength to eat
would you love me any less
you were born with an honest heart
and it carried me from the start
Oh my oh my would you walk on holy water
Oh my oh my could you walk through bricks and mortar
