Lyrics

I'd learned to fight and not be known
To stand my ground and stand alone
But Mary saw through every guise
And saw the girl beneath

We traded secrets hushed and low
Of wounds the world would never know
Of anchors left upon the shore
Before we found the sea

She said, 'Have you heard the rumours?
That you and I are lovers?
Simpletons can't understand
The bond of you and I'

It's like you're me, and I am you
One soul somehow split in two
Men may come, and men may go
But we are bound for life

The lanterns swayed, the night drew in
I felt a chill upon my skin
I asked her 'Do you fear the cage?'
I fear it every night

She laughed 'No cage has held us yet'
She took my cheek and kissed my head
'I promise that won't be your end
Put your trust in me
I'll always see you free
