As the World Turns

Music: Juan Calixto

Lyrics: Jessica Schneidau

Lyrics

Your voice was a beacon of light in the dark, the ashes fell around me, hitting the ground and igniting a spark, and when the sky fell upon us, I was staring into your eyes, bodies collide with, life as we know it on a Saturday night The thunder, and the silence, like I was in a dream, then I was reminded, one last touch, could be the end of me, my love Take my hand, I want you to love me as hard as you can, and maybe when it's over, and it ends, we can begin again, when it burns, I'll keep on running, as the world turns, as fast as it can, as far as we know, there's no tomorrow I met you in the evening on a Saturday, structures crumbling around us, on our moonlit getaway, no I don't know your name, but we're out of time, then we're making love, in the ruins, under the city lights Take my hand, I want you to love me as hard as you can, and maybe when it's over, and it ends, we can begin again, when it burns, I'll keep on running, as the world turns, as fast as it can, as far as we know, there's no tomorrow
