lyrics

This landslide, it pulls me down / It sweeps me off my feet and plants me in the ground
The longer I'm tied to this post, the deeper my roots grow / My branches reach out pleading to be free

Come on, you're wasting daylight (These flowers won't bloom if you wait any longer). My love: will you take my hand?' Cause I can't live without you

They say with love when you know you know. I gave you my heart; I promised you everything, because I know you'd do the same for me. Yeah, you're the sun; you're my favorite season--but what happens when the air gets cold? When I lose all my leaves and my limbs start to freeze, will you keep me hanging on? You're the sun you're my favorite season, so I know that when the air gets cold... through the snow and the sleet you're my reason to be. Keep me alive 'til the Summer comes

We will survive this cold dark winter ahead before this hurricane tears us apart to nourish the earth that held our prosperity. WE WILL SURVIVE. I've been battered by wind and by rain. It's been so dark--will you bring me the light again? So I can see all these things--all of these things in front of me that will try to break us.
These are the storms that will make us stronger

You are the sun. We’ll keep the storms at the gate with the walls we built together. We’ll keep the storms far away with the walls we wield forever
