Our love grows with each tear
Our love grows with each kiss
Our love grows with pearls of bliss

Swimming away

Oh green leaves of mighty trees
Blue streaks of great seas
Endless fires of painted sky
Aurora's souring way up high

Like fuel to a flame
in the coldest of dark nights
Love needs a strong flame
