In the beginning
God made stress
And we knew it well
For it attacked you
And it attacked me
But what is hell to us
When we have heaven
Our love is the witness
No past to regret
No future to condemn
Except time apart
To share all our fears
Will it make us stronger
Will we be torn or mended
By the stress of it all
Or will love build walls
Withstanding all we endure
This is no easy life to live
But I can't wait any longer
No past to regret
No future to condemn
Except time apart
Put your arms around me
It seems the rain never stops
But neither do our hearts
The spirit in our souls
Will never grow tired
Will never grow old
Always tending the garden
Flowers will never be rocks
No past to regret
No future to condemn
Except time apart
Only in the now we live
To live within it safely
Taking our turn on watch
Or both together north south
If we are tired or cold
The walls we build are ours
We are no longer visitors
Our home is what saved me
No past to regret
No future to condemn
Except time apart
