They came alone
As fires swept the sky
This holy ball of light
Some saw with joy and some with fright
They came alone
The two of them hand in hand
The third deep inside
Making promises, etching plans
They came alone
Leaving all they had behind
Their friends turned to ghosts
As they walked side by side
They came alone
Talking as they strode
Words of love, words of hope
To keep out the cold
Deny my love
Can't deny my love
There with every step I'm losing faith
And fear has gripped my soul
"We'll be fine."
He looks into her eyes
His world in the frame as their hands entwine
"We'll be fine."
"There's many miles to go
The end's still far I know
But there's good men there I trust
We'll be fine."
There's a creak in his voice
But he really has no choice
But take comfort in the lie
"We'll be fine."
She kisses him goodnight
She holds him close inside
As the little one kicks inside
Deny my love
Can't deny my love
There with every step I'm losing faith
And fear has gripped my soul
Deny my love
Can't deny my love
There with every step I'm losing faith
And fear has gripped my soul
Oh, I'm losing faith
And, yes, fear has gripped my soul
