Until I'm Not Yours

We won't be immortalized in sappy songs or clever rhymes What's so special about us? Just a couple kids in love And in the end they'll all forget, there'll be nobody to wax poetic But even if that's true, oh my dear, let's see this through And though we might be consigned to oblivion That's all fine, just stay mine 'til the bitter end While the earth still turns Oh, darling, let's burn 'Til we're just embers that no one remembers but us And even long after that, when we've all turned to dust I'll have loved you Oh, I will love you Forevermore Until I'm not yours Anymore History won't care about the history we've shared, and all These tears will calcify, there'll be no record of our fights Time is blind to all the times we chose to hold on just another night But I don't mind 'Cause though we might be consigned to oblivion That's all fine, I'll stay yours 'til the bitter end While the earth still turns Oh, darling, let's burn 'Til we're just embers that no one remembers but us And even long after that, when we've all turned to dust I'll have loved you Oh, I will love you Forevermore Until I'm not yours Anymore It's a strange kind of prescience to know That's each moment's precious, and so Let's just be present, there's nothing I want more than you 'Cause I know that eventually We'll be pieces of each other's history And ever-fainter memories But for now why don't you just let me be Your everything While the earth still turns Oh, darling, let's burn 'Til we're just embers that no one remembers but us And even long after that, when we've all turned to dust I'll have loved you Oh, I will love you Forevermore Until I'm not yours Anymore And though we might be consigned to oblivion That's all fine, we'll survive 'til the bitter end
