Emitt Rhodes
Only Lovers Decide
Brave young soldier of fortune
Fair young maiden in white
Sharing rose-colored glasses
Counting stars in the night
Blessed union of spirit
Silver threads intertwine
Fabric so gently woven
Fashioned veil of sunshine
If you ask "Will true love abide?"
I'll reply "Some live, some die
Only lovers decide"
The Earth turns in many ways
So some may sleep while some may wake
Treasured moments of sweetness
Far more precious than gold
Loving arms, warm embraces
Shielding you from the cold
If you ask "Will true love abide?"
I'll reply "Some live, some die
Only lovers decide"
