Into Eternity
If I were but a stone and you were a peach
Would you stay on your branch totally out of reach?
If I were a dandelion and you were the wind
Would you help me spread my seeds, be my dearest friend?
If I were but a seedling struggling for life in the snow
Would you be the winter sun and shine to help me grow?
Babe when I was so stoned I was totally out of reach
You offered me your heart, the sweetness of the peach
Babe when I was an evil man spreading seeds in the wind
You saw the good in me and became my dearest friend
Babe when my soul was black as night my heart as cold as snow
You opened up my heart and soul then taught them how to grow
And now just look and you and I the couple that we are
Just a couple of happy quasars shining like a single star
So never think in your life that I would ever go away
I will be right at your side until we reach our dying day
If I had but a single wish sweetheart that wish would be
Let us be in each other’s arms as we step into eternity
