[Verse 1]
If ever I do hurt you
Make your willows bend
If ever I deceive you
Darling, do not hang your head

If ever I betray you
Cast shadows on your light
I pray that you may pardon
And forgive me by and by

[Chorus]
Oh my, baby cast another light
Oh my, baby cast another light

[Verse 2]
'Cause in our greatest conquest
We are what fate pretends
That's the heroes we once dreamt of
When we were children in our bed

And in our greatest triumphs
We cannot shake the fear
That the ones that we once treasured
May, at any given second, disappear

[Chorus]
My dear, may we never disappear
My dear, may we never disappear

[Bridge]
'Cause we are just animals
Living in the wild
But we too, can be civil, friend
I'd like to try that now
I'd like to try that now

[Outro]
So I know I don't deserve you
But if I ever dare forget
May you help my heart remember
And bring me home again
