Across the Avenue

Tonight I am thankful for tomorrow begins
a lifetime together, the two hearts will win.
I have loved you as surely as love has no shame
for as long as you're listening I'll whisper your name.
I will whisper your name when you're wounded and caught.
Oh when love beats so loudly a whisper is lost,
and if I made the rules and if time was the game
I would promise forever to whisper your name.
Well, if you strike a match and set the whole world aflame
and they used up the ocean and still prayed for rain.
When they cry for the guilty, I'll take the blame,
and when no one is listening I'll whisper your name.
I will whisper your name when you're wounded and caught.
Oh when love beats so loudly a whisper is lost,
and if I made the rules and if time was the game
I would promise forever to whisper your name.
I will whisper your name when you're wounded and caught,
oh when love beats so loudly a whisper is lost,
and if I made the rules and if time were the game
I would promise forever to whisper your name.
I would promise forever to whisper your name.
