Track 11 ยท Sunny Side Up
You Remain
A celebration of longevity: one person, chosen and kept through everything that came after. Quiet, theatrical, and the closest this album gets to uncomplicated happiness.
Lyrics
Gone is the day we thought would never come
It's in the past and done
It didn't last that long
Pictures filed away on a memory stick
They're all outdated now
The memories faded out
All those summers drifted past us
Winters, too, did not outlast us
Time has walked around the block
Friends have moved to different places
We've discovered different faces
Houses changed. Rooms rearranged
But you remain
Ever loving ever honest
Timelessness has swept upon us
You remain
Continuing our ageless tale
since I raised the wedding veil on you
(Ooooh)
Passions have returned from many moons ago
You cut your hair back then
Then grew it back again
We've made a few additions to the family tree
Now all the kids have grown
From the nest they've flown
But you remain
Outlasting all the sands of time and
stronger than a ring of diamonds
You remain
Historic like the plays of Shakespeare
A perfect dream that never wakes dear
Dear, the love we have is timeless
The bond we shared inside won't ever end
Take all the time you need to enjoy the ride
I will wait for you forever
You remain
Longer than the river Nile
A lasting history compiled
You remain
Dynamic like the roar of thunder
A mystery. A whirlwind wonder
You remain
(Oooh)
You remain
Longer than the river Nile
A lasting history compiled
You remain
Dynamic like the roar of thunder
A mystery. A whirlwind wonder
You remain
Typing out our timeless fable
knowing that we will be able
to remain
Cause heaven couldn't last much longer
than this perfect love I've shared with
You
