If the sky opened up for me, And the mountains disappeared, If the seas ran dry, turned to dust And the sun refused to rise I would still find my way, By the light I see in your eyes. The world I know fades away But you stay.
As the earth reclaims its due, And the cycle starts anew, We'll stay, always In the love that we have Shared before time.
If the years take away Every memory that I have I would still know the way That would lead me back to your side. The North star may die But the light that I see in your eyes Will burn there always Lit by the love we have Shared before time.
When the forest turns to jade, And the stories that we've made Dissolved away One shining light will still remain.
When we shed our earthly skin, And when our real life begins, There'll be no shame Just the love that we have made before time.
