Everything Falls Away Songtext
Wasn't a cloud in the sky when the news arrived
just another bluebird day
just a voice on the phone saying I'm sorry
everything falls away

so i went down to the sea to look for you
found the moon and the Milky Way
watched the tide take back what it gave to me
everything falls away
i live in the fear that my heart will break
i look for the thing that'll cure the ache
just one thing that the world can't take away
i want to dive beneath the undertow
down to the bones of the earth below
i want to know, i want to know – where did you go

I saw you so clear in a dream last night
diving from the cliffs at Echo Bay
the arc and the pause and the slow descent
everything falls away
