A year of night Followed by an endless summer Our past lies at the bottom of the sea The sun slows down The evenings glow forever The dust of stars blankets you and me We came of age in a time after history After history When we touched down We couldn't know it was forever The dust of years will smother you and me We fell in love in a time after history We make it work in a time after history I'll wait for you A thousand lifetimes My rusted gears will give in to decay We came of age We fell in love We make it work In a time after history
