The candles hold their breath tonight
White lace traces the floor
I've walked toward this single light
Through every open door
The universe is standing still
Between the earth and sky
A promise that we both fulfill
While all the years go by
Beyond the reach of sun and moon
Beyond the changing of the tide
I'm breathing in this holy room
With nothing left to hide
I will love you through the deep
I will love you while the stars are old
I give you every day to keep
You are the only hand I hold
I will love you through the deep
I will love you while the stars are old
I give you every day to keep
You are the only hand I hold
I see the maps across your palms
I read the history in your eyes
The storm has settled into calms
Beneath these vast and open skies
Time is just a quiet thread
Weave it through our joined hands
Everything that must be said
Is written in these wedding bands
I will love you through the deep
I will love you while the stars are old
I give you every day to keep
You are the only hand I hold
I will love you through the deep
I will love you while the stars are old
I give you every day to keep
You are the only hand I hold
While the stars are old
You're the only hand I hold
Forever is a simple thing
Just you and I
