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would never come It's in the past and done It didn't last that long Pictures filed away on a memory stick They're all outdated now The memories faded out All those summers drifted past us Winters, too, did not outlast us Time has walked around the block Friends have moved to different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
