Lyrics
for billions of years the two of us were nothingness
for billions of years we were waiting just to kiss
and i still love you even though you may feel ashamed
i've wanted you since we learned each others names

for billions of years we were sleeping so sound
for billions of years our love wasn't even around
and i still love you even though i may treat you unkind
i know you, right now your feeling heavy inside
take your hands from your pockets and put them in mine

those hands are of tissue and bone
and my love when i kiss you my own
heart beating deepens its pound
before i'm sure nothing made this sound

but whatever we heard
and whatever madness had us so concerned
and oh yes whatever we tried so hard to learn,
these billions of years make us unlearn
that galaxies birthed into violence and light
before your tears the earth and oceans learned to cry
and my love we had to wait as gravity pulled so weak
and then one day we were allowed to speak

and we spoke so sweet as we walked the deserted beach
you took your shirt off I said I'm scared what if someone sees
and later i fished you asked me to come kiss you in the sand
and your heart responded to the strength in my hands
and I told you i loved you best when you grew your hair long
and you read my future right out of my left palm

but whatever we said so strong
between us in each others arms
these billions of years prove us wrong

dont know what I'm worried about
I've seen stars and people disappear
don't know what I'm worried about
its just a couple of years
a couple of years and i can love you at last
a couple of years amazing how you get so attached
