Lyrics:

(Love among the ruins)
The sky was falling
(Love among the ruins)
Heaven was calling
(Love among the ruins)
When danger crashes
(Love among the ruins)
Rose from the ashes.

Like two statues hidden inside ancient rock,
We were praying for the secrets to unlock.
And when the sun had turned its back on us,
In the dark our love kept track of us,
Pushed together by the lack of love
Oh, love among the ruins.


(Love among the ruins)
The sky was falling
(Love among the ruins)
Heaven was calling
(Love among the ruins)
When danger crashes
(Love among the ruins)
Rose from the ashes.

We held each other tightly through our hell of dreams.
I still hear the never-ending echo of those screams.
But it's a life not made for reliving,
Its a life that makes your soul forgiving.
We sealed our bond from the beginning
Oh, love among the ruins.

Aching, affection, vulnerable protection,
Falling, captured, crawling, rapture.

(Love among the ruins)
The sky was falling
(Love among the ruins)
Heaven was calling
(Love among the ruins)
Oh love, love.
