If you believe, if you believe

it's only another minor miracle (repeat X 4)

 

When we were kings

the world was just the two of us

when we were kings

your eyes were wide and all was wondrous

 

Now we're closer to the end

than nearer the beginning

strung out on your own

no need to fall

when you're caught between the gutter

and the stars

 

seen by light of different constellations

caught between the gutter

and the stars

 

seen by light of different constellations

 

the memory's upon us

written where the body keeps the score

 

what's the worst that they can think of you,

my friend

what's the worst that you could be?

 

There but for this rogue state of grace go I

and I am you are you are me.

 

And you only want to live

in one perfect moment

no more to think

than to feel

 

 

seen by light of different constellations

caught between the gutter

and the stars

 

seen by light of different constellations

a reckoning's upon us

brother, hope you're ready for the storm.
