Perpetual

I'll dry the oceans between us
Just by the power of my will,
And from the sword of fate I'll shield you,
I'll bleed for you. I'll stop the wheel
Of time - perpetuate the moment
When I can linger in your arms.
And only where you are
Is my true home.

I'll hold you through long starry nights,
I'll gently whisper in your ear
The tales of the unknown times,
They're still to come. And I don't fear
A single thing if you're with me.
Exploring all the undiscovered,
There's no shadow of a doubt
That you are where my roads lead.

Your heart has been my only shrine,
Your life is nothing less than mine.
I love you both for who you are
And for who I
Am when you are beside me...

I'll turn to dust the lands between us
And make my way to you through fields
Of longing, agony and anguish.
I'll come to you and stop the wheel
Of time - perpetuate the moment
When I can linger in your arms.
And only where you are
Is my true home.

Your heart has been my only shrine,
Your life is nothing less than mine.
I love you both for who you are
And for who I
Am when you are beside me...

'perpetuate the moment' seems to be a lot of sylables and its stants out quite a lot against the rest of the song... :S

maybe 'of time - a/one perpetual moment' seems to flow better, perpetuate doesnt fit the song i dont feel :(

Love these lyrics Beautiful_Disaster

I agree with coleclark, the word "perpetuate" does feel out of place.

May I offer;
Of longing, agony and anguish.
I'll come to you and stop time's wheel
For an everlasting moment
When I can linger in your arms.
And only where you are
Is my true home.

Thanks a lot for the comments and for the suggestion, but I like it the way it is, and I'll leave it this way.
