If I¡¯d been a prophet I would tell you how the future was
|
If I¡¯d been a phoenix, raise us up through embers and flames
|
|
But together we wander
|
Through our blame but he didn¡¯t know
|
All we wanted for our love
|
Was a chance to let it grow
|
|
I prayed so hard the rain would pour
|
To calm down the flames but now they¡¯ve grown
|
No loving is left
|
Stand in the wrong side
|
Of the sun
|
|
If I¡¯d been a loaner I would save myself, stay unaware
|
If I¡¯d been a dreamer I would float away in a dream
|
|
But the seasons, they were sleeping
|
And the fates were on our side
|
And only summer eternal
|
Never harvest or survive
|
|
I prayed so hard the rain would pour
|
To calm down the flames but now they¡¯re gone
|
No loving is left
|
Stand in the wrong side
|
Of the sun
|
|
We never thought to keep pushing it
|
We thought the sun would be forever long
|
She took him til the colors faded
|
And it was too late then to run and hide
|
|
I prayed so hard the rain would pour
|
To calm down the flames but now they¡¯ve grown
|
Our love¡¯s over now
|
Oh how did it go so very wrong?
|
|
We watched as the heat slit through our skin
|
Our hearts to expose the end to them
|
No loving is left
|
Stand in the wrong side
|
Of the sun
|
|
No one here to say what¡¯s done is done
|
Standing on the wrong side of the sun
|
|
