Billy Bob Thornton The edge of the world album






To the end of time

(Billy Bob Thornton/Marty Stewart)


The sunlight of forever
Shines down on you and me
When we are together
Is the only time we're free

That's when the world stands still
We're the only ones alive
There's no space in between us
If you look into our eyes

We don't have to touch
We just breathe each other's breath
We only have two choices
Paradise or death

The blood has all been given
And it's written on the wall
How crazy we've been driven
Is a mystery to them all

We always played like children
And we made love just like gods
We fought this world together
And we lived to spite the odds

I'd tear through the sky to find you
And I know that you'd find me
We made a sacred promise
To find out what we can't see

We stood out on the edge
And we pulled each other back
And then we disappeared
In the middle of the act

We built a sanctuary
Had communion without wine
We drank enough to last us
To the end of time
