[Verse 1]
The summer set fire to the rain
And fire to my bones
But you just stood there begging for the world to leave you
To leave you alone
[Chorus]
The summer set fire to the rain
And fire to my bones
It burned until nothing remained
Of all that I'd known
[Verse 2]
The winter held spring in white gloves
And slowly it grew
But you just stood there waiting for the world to walk out
To walk out on you
[Chorus]
The summer set fire to the rain
And fire to my bones
It burned until nothing remained
Of all that I'd known
The summer set fire to the rain
And fire to my bones
It burned until nothing remained of all that I'd known
(Don't you see everything's interweaving?)
(Don't you know all of the world's conceiving you?)
[Bridge 1]
How long, how long holding true?
How long, how long until the bloom?
How long, how long holding true?
How long, how long must we wait for you?
How long, how long holding true?
How long, how long until the bloom?
How long, how long holding true?
How long, how long must we wait for you?
[Bridge 2]
(How long) It's waiting
(How long) Under the snow
(We sowed) The good seed
How long 'til you let it grow?
(How long) It's waiting
(How long) Under the snow
(We sowed) The good seed
How long 'til you let it grow?
[Outro]
How long, how long?
How long, how long?
