Lyrics
First, we were on our own
Initially, we were independent.
But we had ourselves and wanted more
We had each other but desired more.
We drew in the starry night lit by firelight
We experienced a romantic night under the stars illuminated by firelight.
'Til it came ashore
Our experience continued until it reached the shore.
I know love is never lost
The singer believes that love is enduring and never truly lost.
'Cos every motion has it's cost
Every action in love comes with a price or consequence.
Even oceans turn to dust
Even vast and deep emotions can fade away.
I know love is never lost
Reiterates the belief that love remains despite challenges.
Then a collective dream
Describes a shared dream made up of illusions and technology.
Made of smoke and screens
Indicates a journey influenced by artificial elements like smoke and screens.
Took us town to town once we were so afraid
Traveling from place to place despite initial fears.
When the bases changed buried in the ground
A change in circumstances, possibly a shift in priorities, hidden or forgotten.
I know love is never lost
Reaffirms the idea that love persists despite challenges.
'Cos every motion has it's cost
Emphasizes the consequences tied to every action in love.
Even oceans turn to dust
Even profound emotions can diminish over time.
I know love is never lost
Restates the enduring nature of love despite hardships.
Now, when the silence comes
Reflects on moments of silence and completion of work.
And the work is done can we hear the sound
Questions whether one can hear the sound in moments of stillness.
We can 'cos we're off in space
Suggests that in the vastness of space, a small, personal place is created.
In a tiny place that we made our own
Describes a space uniquely belonging to the individuals.
I know love is never lost
Reiterates the enduring nature of love despite challenges.
'Cos every motion has it's cost
Highlights the consequences associated with every action in love.
Even oceans turn to dust
Even vast and profound emotions can transform into insignificance.
I know love is never lost
Restates the belief that love persists despite challenges.
