Lyrics

[Verse 1]

There is love

There is lust

There is love fuelled lust

And a thing called trust which I must not break

For you

Forsake, in all others but you

[Verse 2]

There are storms, I must brave

There are things I must do

Things I must not do, to break, for you

Forsake, in all others but you

[Verse 3]

And I will see you when you're older

When we're older

And I will see you when you're older

When we're older

[Verse 4]

Strong arms, they held you to it

That's what they sing in the shadows

What's all this nonsense in the dark

[Verse 5]

We were bent

No doubt, stretch

Pull at the seams of these four legged jeans

For what's is at stake

I will not break, for you

Forsake in all others but you

[Verse 6]

And I will see you when you're older

When we're older

And I will see you when you're older

When we're older

[Verse 7]

And in faith I left you to it

It's what they sing in the shadows

There's always nonsense in the dark

And left you in strong arms

Two strong arms that held you through it

And I blew it

And I blew it

[Verse 8]

Now, now, now, now, now there's something in it

Now, now, now, now, now we've grown up with it

Now, now, now, now, now we know that that's enough

And that's enough

[Verse 9]

And now, now, now, now, now there's something in it

Now, now, now, now, now we've grown up with it

Now, now, now, now, now we know that that's enough

And that's enough for now

[Verse 10]

And that's enough

And that's enough for now
