The Only Thing Left

Sitting unscathed on a pile of ash
She just smiled and put out the last flare on her dress
I surely thought we'd be burnt like the rest
Could it be that we're next
Or the only thing left?

I've watched every tragedy, waiting my turn
Now I'm wasting my courage just fearing the worst
Cause you stood and held me as everything burned
Now I'm one day removed from the worst day on earth

So take both my hands
Spin me around
I'm real in your arms
That's enough for right now
We've been through the past
We're still here somehow
You made it all real
When you said it out loud

We turned and we walked toward the chirp of the birds
As a droplet of rain found a home in the dirt
Oh, life tried to teach me it only gets worse
But I met you just after the end of the world

There's spring in the distance, our backs to the smoke
My soul stirs so gently, it blends in with yours
We stood here together while everything burned
Now we're one day removed from the worst day on earth

So take both my hands
Spin me around
I'm real in your arms
That's enough for right now
We've been through the past
We're still here somehow
You made it all real
When you said it out loud

I don't care if we're next in the morning
Or the only thing left in the room
I finally trust that you love me
And I finally think I love you

I don't care if we're next in the morning
Or the only thing left in the room
I finally trust that you love me
And I finally think I love you

So give me your hands
I'll spin you around
You're real in my arms
I won't put you back down
We've been through the past
We're still here somehow
We make this all real
When we say it out loud
