I found her sleeping
And bound her up with roses
Did I know I held her life in my hands
Did I know I held her life in my hands

I whispered and she woke
I spoke the rosy ribbons
Did I know she held my life in her hands

And all round us was Elysion
Elysion
Elysion

The sea has drowned the city
The skies are full of thunder
Still I know I held her life in my hands
I shivered and she spoke
The final words of summer
Still I know, she held my life in her hands

And all around us was Elysion
Elysion
Elysion
Elysion
Elysion

Elysion
Elysion

I need you to hold on, when the sky is falling
I need you to hold on, when the sky is falling
I need you to hold on, when the sky is falling
I need you to hold on, when the sky is falling
