We kept our heads down, we moved through the water's wake
We lay still until winter had worn off
There were cold winds bringing storms together
There were black clouds over rainbows
We could see the messages etched on the fence posts
From those summer nights when we slept outside under starlight

Would you love me any less
If my eyes became weak?
If I could no longer hear you speak?
Would you love me any less?
You were born with an honest heart
And it carried me from the start

It kept our skin warm as we walked on the old rail tracks
The sun beat misty heat down on our backs
There was nothing that could ever change us
There were picture frames on the window sill 
With an image of us looking so still
Guess I thought that we’d be here forever

Would you love me any less
If my lungs became weak?
If I had lost the strength to eat?
Would you love me any less?
You were born with an honest heart
And it carried me from the start

Oh my, oh my, would you walk on holy water?
Oh my, oh my, could you walk through bricks and mortar?

Would you love me any less
If my eyes became weak?
If I could no longer hear you speak?
Would you love me any less?
You were born with an honest heart
And it carried me from the start

Would you love me any less
If my eyes became weak?
If I could no longer hear you speak?
Would you love me any less?
You were born with an honest heart
And it carried me from the start
