Every Kingdom Songtext
von Holly Arrowsmith

Look out from the tower
Over all you can see
That was your kingdom
And you were a queen
I′d wait by the driveway
Counting down your return
Afraid I might lose you
If I prayed the wrong words

But every kingdom must fall

Well time is a giver
And time is a thief
For all that we lose
We surely must grieve
And grief is a friend we don't know ′til we meet
She walks alongside us 'til we find relief

Though every kingdom must fall


Well I have lost friends
Lovers and dreams
Out of these trembling hands
Have fallen many things
But inside is a fire
Burning faint but long
It purges then it urges me on

Though every kingdom must fall
And words cannot be undone
But all things can be made new
In every sorrow, a song
It won't be long

Though the space in between now
Seems too far to reach
Times I′ve imagined
A bridge in between
And if I could be water
That′s what I'd be
Stretch my arms out to reach
Both shores beyond me
