We knew this flame would fade
to smoke amoung the rocks
With the sound of crashing waves
With the ticking of the clock

We knew the dawning of the day
Kissed goodbye to my best friend
I'll pray my soul to save
Fears that hearts will never mend

We knew love would someday stray
and without a question why
I'll stand in single footprints
And leave you far behind

We knew this flame would fade
We knew the dawning of the day
We knew love would someday stray
and yet we loved anyways..

You knew me to be hateful
Always needing my own time
And I kept pushing you away
Ignored the hurt that filled your eyes

You knew me less than faithful
When words could not describe
The guilt of tearing you apart
Was enough to make me cry

You knew me to be shameful
To hide behind my lies
And everytime I walked away
I watched a small piece inside you die

You knew me to be hateful
You knew me less than faithful
You knew me to be shameful
And yet you loved me anyways..

I knew for a perfect moment
The power behind a heart
The colours you brought fourth in me
Not just a feeling but an art

I knew from subtle beating
When two lives emerged as one
When shadows lit by stardust
Passions burning like the sun

I knew from whispers in the evening
From falling deep and hard
When in reality I'm dreaming
The kind of love that leaves you scarred

But I knew for a perfect moment
From those subtle hearts that beat
From the whispers in the evening
And yet we loved anyways..
