I heard a rumour that when she was named
The sky dyed blue and the daisy's chained
I heard a lie that when her smiles gone
Time stood still and birds forget their song

But then quietly over time my feelings doused

I heard a secret that when she's asleep
Leaves fall brown and the willows weep
I heard a whisper that when she cried
The tides came in and the oceans dried

But then quietly over time my feelings doused

And my lips were cracked and the words sailed away
I left you standing alone in disarray

I heard a tale that when she's near
Flowers grow taller angels appear
I heard a story that when her name was spelt
The heavens fell in and the stars burnt out

But then quietly over time my feelings doused
And my lips were cracked and the words sailed away
I left you standing alone in disarray
And my lips were cracked and the words sailed away
Make for a desert swept by the winds of pain
