Before the Great Divide
I'm right, you're wrong
So you know it won't be long
'Til we both are headed down
To separate oceans
Pushed along by a flood
Of emotions
Tell me, where'd we get this crazy notion
It's what you said
Still stuck in my head
Gonna pick it apart
To find some reason
To justify the changing
Of my season
This is it--
No more teasin'
God lifts the oceans
Drop by drop
Oh God places crystals
One by one on top...
Drifts of shining powder
Ten feet high
Pure and white together
Touching sky
Resting there
Before the Great Divide
It's gravity, I guess
Makes our hearts digress
And no one's
Blessed with wings
We trade in our feathers
For bootstrings
The cruelest season
Is the spring
God lifts the oceans
Drop by drop
Oh God places crystals
One by one on top...
Drifts of shining powder
Ten feet high
Pure and white together
Touching sky
Oh God hold us here
Hold us here
Ease our fear
Oh God hold us here
Before the Great Divide
Before the Great Divide
Before the Great Divide
