[Verse 1] Your father shut the gate My mother barred the road We met by the fig tree Under a torn sky Your name on my tongue Your ring in my palm The house dogs growled As the lanterns went dark [Pre-Chorus] But I hear you through the wall I feel you through the stone Every prayer they locked away Still finds its way home [Chorus] Stay with me Stay with me Even far away Even far away Our hearts still kneel Our hearts still kneel To the same moon To the same moon [Verse 2] They marched us past the well They hid your letters in ash I learned your footsteps In the dust on the path At the feast, I smiled At the table, I lied But my soul kept singing Through the unforgiving night [Pre-Chorus] Tell me the walls can crack Tell me the gates can fall I have saved our last goodbye Like a note in my drawer [Chorus] Stay with me Stay with me Even far away Even far away Our hearts still kneel Our hearts still kneel To the same moon To the same moon [Bridge] If they take my name I will keep yours If they break our hands I will still reach Through every feud Through every vow Let the old blood end So that we can begin [Final Chorus] Stay with me Stay with me Even far away Even far away Our hearts still kneel Our hearts still kneel To the same moon To the same moon [Outro] When dawn comes Wait for me I will find you here or in eternity
