dust in love

When the last light fades

and the dark comes close

when my breath lets go

of the world I know

I won’t forget

where your fire began

even cold black water

could not drown my hands

I’ll be ash

but I’ll still feel

I’ll be dust

but I’ll love you still

Oh, I’ll cross that river

with a flame in my chest

even after forever

I won’t love you less

I’ll be gone

but not enough

I’ll be dust

dust still in love

Let the body fall

let the silence win

there’s a part of me

death can’t take within

No grave, no night

no law above

can turn this burning

back from love

I’ll be ash

but I’ll still feel

I’ll be dust

but I’ll love you still

Oh, I’ll cross that river

with a flame in my chest

even after forever

I won’t love you less

I’ll be gone

but not enough

I’ll be dust

dust still in love
