first we were on our own but we had ourselves and wanted more we drew in the starry night lit by firelight til it came ashore i know love is never lost cos every motion has its cost even oceans turn to dust i know love is never lost then a collective dream made of smoke and screens took us town to town once we were so afraid when the bases changed buried in the ground i know love is never lost cos every motion has its cost even oceans turn to dust i know love is never lost now when the silence comes and the work is done can we hear the sound we can cos we re off in space in a tiny place that we made our own i know love is never lost cos every motion has its cost even oceans turn to dust i know love is never lost
