Write you name in sand and snow and watch it blow away 

Write you name in blood and rain and see it leave a stain 

Upon my soul 

We're got father time, we're got mother earth 

But somehow love is all we crave 

I painted you with the colours of the night and the 

I watched you fade away 



(chorus) 

Love's locked inside of my heart 

Love's locked inside - safe and forever waiting 

And there it shall remain 



Thaw the ice in these brittle veins and melt this arctic soul 

I pray alone to a child like god, 

Let me see your face before I'm old 

My heart is hard and heavy with the burden of ungiven love 

I think I loved you deeper that the ocean blue and when 

I saw the starts at night I thanked them all for you 



chorus 



Write you name in sand and snow, 

Write you name in blood and rain, 

Thaw the ice in these brittle veins, melt this arctic soul 



Love's locked inside, safe and forever 

(a silent wish for what I thought divine) 



So this is the fate that time has chosen to be mine 

A hope that's not to be fulfilled, 

A silent which for what I thought divine 

I will keep it here for you deep down inside myself 

I'd rather keep it here for the ages to behold 

That give it away to someone else 



chorus
