We shared the night, the longest of our days
And the burning moonlight was swept away all the same
We were thinking of where we would be in a year
That’s what drove us here in the night this time last year
And all of our souls transcend us
They send us to heaven
Or whatever we believe in
And all of our bodies deny this
They make mirrors of our eyelids
And all we see are memories
Of the longest night
We were falling in love like movie stars
And the back home wars seemed very far away
We were not quite keeping our toes to the ground
And we made no sound, and listened to the rain
And all of our souls transcend us
Oh they send us to heaven
Or whatever we believe in
And all of our bodies deny this
They make mirrors of our eyelids
And all we see are memories
Of the longest night
