Grant Watson - The Ends of the Earth Lyrics

We've been waiting
In this room for an hour
The sun is setting
The streets are filling up now

The bells are ringing
Their low level alarms
The TV's murmuring
About the rioting crowds

And I can hardly
Speak a word of all this
I can hardly
Stand the touch of your lips

Now you're leaving
And there's nothing to do
But make this promise
This solemn promise to you
I'll be with you
When the skies fall apart
I'll be with you
When the universe burns
I'll be with you
At the end of the world
I'll be with you
Till the ends of the Earth
Till the ends of the Earth
Till the ends of the Earth
Till the ends of the Earth

You speak so softly
Your voice gets lost in the rain
A shortwave station
That keeps drifting out of range

There's people singing
Some kind of requiem mass
And the city statues
Are all holding out flowers

And I can hardly
Speak a word of all this
I can hardly
Stand the touch of your lips

Now you're leaving
And there's nothing to do
But make this promise
This solemn promise to you
I'll be with you
When the skies fall apart
I'll be with you
When the universe burns
I'll be with you
At the end of the world
I'll be with you
Till the ends of the Earth
Till the ends of the Earth
Till the ends of the Earth
Till the ends of the Earth

When the petals fall
From Cathedral walls
And the sirens sound
In the playground yards
When the dogs howl
On suburban lawns
And the last door is shut

I'll remember a little house on a beach
The middle of winter
No light and no heat

Wrapped up in blankets
We watched the tide start to turn

It's where I'll be waiting
At the end of the world
