"One" lyrics

Flowers climbin' the lattice, clingin' dark vines
Wooden frames and clematis
Sowin' seeds in the garden, present of time
Indents made in the mattress

Ah-ooh, I won't just love you for the summer
Ah-ooh, I'm here to stay

If I could find the notes to calm you down
I would wrap you up in their silver sound
And the only noise comin' out my mouth
Would be of love and affection
It's been a hell of a year, feels like we've rounded it twice
Still I find peace in your arms, my two sacred vines
That gave me the words I'd only hoped to write
When I lost all my sense of direction

Ocotillos and cactus, resilient minds
Habits formed, care for practice
Monsoons pourin' and chargin', the present of time
Little gestures like magic

Ah-ooh, I won't love you like the others
Ah-ooh, I'm by you to the grave

If I could find a way to show you how
I'd start up the rain on the solid ground
Show how you came to me like water to my mouth
In times like the storms of the desert
So we'll make it through the summer, and we'll make it through the fall
We'll learn to love this vicious cycle and to cope with it all
And I found peace in your arms on those tired old nights
If we're startin' a garden, then we're startin' new life

And in time we can wonder how we got old and borin'
Let these perennial roots take the reins on our choices
But if it's you, then I'm with it, stayin' up in the kitchen
Goin' all the full distance, if you're sinkin', I'm swimmin' to you
