Lyrics

V1
I hold you gently
While you destroy me
Running on empty
I love you anyway

V2
Don’t mean to smother
Through stifling summers
Role of a mother
To love you anyway

CHORUS
Spin round the sun
As you fall one by one
When the last child is gone
I’ll miss you

V3
New age is dawning
With plenty of warning
Ready for mourning
I love you anyway

CHORUS

BRIDGE
I will survive, the new era
bury your bones in the hills
nothing to fear, I forgive you
nothing to fear

CHORUS

REFRAIN
I hold you gently
While you destroy me
Running on empty
I love you
