Intro: (2x) If you were a stone then I’d be the rain Turn you to sand as the time slips away If you were a tree then I’d be the earth Clutching your roots as you reach skyward Verse 1: I am a metaphor for all the things I couldn’t say     It’s never easy then it hurts Like scratching diamonds I have tried to find my way to you     But we’re both moving in reverse Pre-Chorus: I wish that we could both find a simple way just to make it by Right now I’m alright if you’re just fine Chorus Verse 2: Some nights you’re a photograph fading in my memory Some days I feel you on my skin We’re trading silence There are words that seem to steal our breath And I just dream about your lips Pre-Chorus Chorus Chorus 2: We’d count the stars My hands in your leaves And I’d hold my breath ’til we both fell asleep If you were a stone then I’d be the rain Turn you to sand as the time slips away Bridge: I will wait I will wait I will wait for? I will wait I will wait I will wait for? I will wait I will wait I will wait for you I will wait I will wait I will wait for? I will wait I will wait I will wait for? I will wait I will wait I will wait for you   Chorus Outro: If you were a stone then I’d be the rain Turn you to sand as the time slips away
