Cradled In Love
Poets Of The Fall · Temple Of Thought [2012]
To pierce my guard and to take my soul off to faraway places
Told me I'll never be alone, cos you're right there
We took a gamble with this love,
like sailing to the storm
With the waves rushing over to take us,
we were battling against the tide
You were my beacon of salvation, I was your starlight
So don't cry for your love, cry tears of joy
Cos you're alive cradled in love
Don't cry for your love, cry tears of joy
Cos you're alive cradled in love
I kept the love you gave me alive,
and now I carry it with me
I know it's just a tear drop from mother earth,
but in it I can hear a dolphin sing
Telling me I'll never be alone, I know you're right there
So with the fire still burning bright,
I wanna gaze into your light
If I could see my fortune there,
you know how flames can hypnotize
Do I even dare to speak out your name for fear it sounds like,
like a lover
So don't cry for your love, cry tears of joy
Cos you're alive cradled in love
Don't cry for your love, cry tears of joy
Cos you're alive
Cradled in love
