lyrics

There's a certain strength that comes from sadness
A strength that you might need in years to come
And there is some solidity in madness
Like the kind that bound the two of us as one

And there's a heartfelt agony in dreaming
Those dreams where we both wake up much too soon
And there is untold tragedy in grieving
The loss of children that we never knew

So dry up all those tears and let me love you
Cause it's the only thing that I know how to do
Another month has gone and we've been praying all along
But God still sees a family of two

I've run out of words to say I'm sorry
And I've run out of ways to start anew
I've forgotten where this journey started
But I know that it ends somewhere here with you

And I don't doubt we'll 'happily ever after'
Our love is deeper than the ocean blue
But I know that this hurt will never leave us
And there will always be a missing part of you

So dry up all those tears and let me love you
Cause it's the only thing that I know how to do
Another month has gone and we've been praying all along
But God must see a family of two

There's honour in a life of fear and trembling
Where terror strikes the silence of the soul
But hope lies deeper still amongst the righteous
And somewhere there's a great reward for burdens that you've carried with you for too long

So dry up all those tears and let me love you
Cause it's the only thing that's left for me to do
Another month has gone and we've been praying all along
But God still sees a family of two.
