lyrics

No matter what happens to me
I cling to you and you cling to me
With lives that crash and burn out black
I can count the ways I'd never come back

Oh, oh, oh, oh…
And you say

I never loved you, darling
I never loved you, darling
And that's all you can say
And that's all you can say

Oh, the black oak swaying in the breeze
I don't know why you bleed, but bleed into me
With lives that crash and burnout black
I can count the ways I'll always come back

Oh, oh, oh, oh…
And I say

I always loved you, darling
I always loved you, darling
And that's all I can say
And that's all I can say
