When the Earth Stands Still

Come listen
In the silence of the moment before rain comes down
There's a deep sigh
In the quiet of the forest and the tall tree's crown

Now hold me
Will you take the time to hold me and embrace the chill?
Or miss me
Will you take the time to miss me when the Earth stands still?

'Cause there's no use running
'Cause the storm's still coming
And you've been running for so many years
For so many years

Come listen
In the silence of the moment before shadows fall
Feel the tremor
Of your heartbeat matching heartbeat as we both dissolve

Now hold me
Will you take the time to hold me and embrace the chill?
Or miss me
Will you take the time to miss me when the Earth stands still?

'Cause there's no use running
'Cause the storm's still coming
And you've been running for so many years

So stay with me
Held in my arms, like branches of a tree
They'll shelter you for many years
So many years

For so many years (stay with me)
Stay with me
