"Long Game" lyrics

"Long Game"

Love is a long game we can play
You turn to me and say
Let's break these rules
No use in playing it cool
No separation, you and I
'Cause we are the sky
We are the ocean in a needle's eye

I feel as naked as the hour that I was born
Running wild with you right through
This coming storm that's gonna form
And tear our world apart

Love is what links the silent space
Between hope and grace
Between every planet, star and world colliding
No separation, you and I
And when we die
Our souls will speak the worlds into existence

I feel as naked as the hour that I was born
Running wild with you right through
This coming storm that's gonna form
And tear our world apart

Love is a long game we can play
You turn to me and say
Let's break these rules
No use in playing it cool
No separation, you and I
'Cause we are the sky
We are the ocean in a needle's eye
