As Long as You're Mine

I don’t belong to any name

no real identity

I’m a knot of common calcium

apologies and meat

I thought I couldn’t wish for more

than to remain a fool

fortunate in my ignorance

in the search for something new

but then there was you

If all that we have is each other now

if one of us falls, we’re both going down

‘cause you’re providing all the light that I’ve seen

and you brought that sun back to me

There can’t be only one way to live

when a lifetime is all that we’ve got

the more you sweat about money man

the more it’s gonna cost

I wanna give away the things I love

forgive all the people I don’t

there’s still time to make sense of this

and recover all we’ve lost

in our pursuit of sun

I tied your shoes

before you turned to leave

I want you to soar

and come back to me

love is distinct

from possession and from greed

I want you to soar

and come back to me

we’ll always be free
